I still have 6 month left on the warranty so I guess in my case paying for the warranty has paid off, and given me peace of mind against major repair bills.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi there, Last year I started a thread here on whether to purchase an extended warranty for my 2003 996 4S. There was much debate on the subject with a wide variety of opinions. I subsequently attended a 996 register event at Porsche Centre Cambridge and received a free vehicle check (the car got a clean bill of health). After discussions with Gary Sorrell (Porsche Centre Cambridge) and Jonny McGirl (996 Register) I decided to take out the extended warranty. I thought I would follow-up my experience since taking out the warranty. The car has just returned from a minor service, both radiators, both a/c condensers and all spark plug coils were replaced free of charge under the warranty. I still have 6 month left on the warranty so I guess in my case paying for the warranty has paid off, and given me peace of mind against major repair bills. I also received 25% discount on the service bill as my car is over 5 years old. Overall very pleased with the service provided. Regards,

POST 2Original post

That sounds good - was the 25% off their hourly rate as well as parts. We are not too far from Cambridge and go there quite often these days, so maybe I should switch to them from Colchester ?

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Checked my bill and I received 10% off parts and 25% off labour. I suggest that you contact Cambridge Porsche Centre on 01223 872872 to check it out for yourself. Regards,

POST 4Original post

The 10% off parts is because you are a PCGB member

POST 5Original post

i think wth a second hand car geting the warrnaty for a year or two is a good choice just incase youve been passed a dog after that its more of a gamble - unless your engine explodes its poor value thats what i did and havent regretted it - and my engine hasnt exploded

POST 6Original post

I didn't get an extended warranty and my engine exploded... D'oh!

POST 7Original post

i bought new and refused warranty on principle-2yrs only on a £50k car is criminal just hope the engine doesnt explode!

POST 8Original post

presumably that refers to the volvo estates and not the kids
