A friend said that if I replaced the battery with a non Porsche item (even if the same spec) it would invalidate my warranty.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have an RS with a dead battery and the car has an extended warranty. A friend said that if I replaced the battery with a non Porsche item (even if the same spec) it would invalidate my warranty. I have not read all the small print of the warranty yet so does anyone have a view on this? Seems a little unreasonable to me if it does invalidate if the battery is identical output and actually made by the same company who make them for Porsche!! Thanks

POST 2Original post

That's right. Everything has to be totally as standard. I had my car at an OPC today and was informed that even Paintshield will invalidate the warranty! Not sure how plastic on a bumper affects the electricals for example, but that's the way it is. I was quoted Â£200 for a battery supply only or Â£260 inc fitting
