BrianJ Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Well yesterday actually....collected my car from the OPC with a new rear control arm, 4-wheel alignment done and nicely valeted. And an invoice for £0.00. All done under Porsche Approved Warranty. Surprising how much better it feels without that annoying rattle. Interesting to see the before and after alignment results which showed that the defective control arm put the geo for that wheel out of the green zone into the amber too.

Graham BGTS Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 Received a quote today from OPC for the 8 year service on my BGTS which has FPSH and I plan to maintain this. Service includes brake fluid change, spark plugs, drive belt check and engine mount check and was £955 inc VAT. I don’t think it’s too bad but would welcome thoughts.

How are they going to check the engine (I presume PADM) mounts? I beleve any faults are internal wiring inside the sealed units. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andygo Posted August 25, 2023 Report Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) A small job on my Cayman. removed the two small external screws under the rear spoiler which were just beginning to look a bit weathered. Wire brushed them and sprayed satin black Newness restored... Bit sad of me I know, Edited August 25, 2023 by andygo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
