OPC said they are replacing both sides, I thought it was just one side? 2 days now with a base Macan, I would have thought that was sufficient time to do the work🤔 No both sides are changed. Quite nice seeing everything so shiny again underneath. Big job to be fair mine was done in around 5 hrs but had the head tech on it who I'm friendly with. I had a base Macan too, I thought it was terrible. The Cayenne is far better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTSMarky Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 I've still not had mine re-scheduled by OPC Silverstone. Anyone on here had their car done @ Silverstone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone on here had their car done @ Silverstone? Had mine done at Silverstone. Initially booked in for November 2021. Called a few days before, parts not available. E- mailed OPC mid January and managed to get a booking for 14th February. It was only me calling that confirmed a re-scheduled date. They said they had to get a plan together to deal with over 45 cars affected by the recall. May be with worth contacting them to give a nudge.

GTSMarky Posted September 8, 2022 Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 Oh and I've moved the recall work to OPC Cambridge as it's significantly closer than OPC Silverstone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJH Posted October 3, 2023 Report Share Posted October 3, 2023 I just got a letter for this today. I've had the car for 14 months, so can only assume the previous owner didn't bother getting it done, given the timescale of the thread.

KJH Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 Booked in with Porsche Glasgow for the 6th of November, they are picking it up, a big job as the service manager explained. Going for a wee break in Chester & Liverpool in a couple of weeks, not entirely sure whether to take it or not, or just take my company car. Does say its fine to drive in the meantime (providing no "highly dynamic driving") Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daibrins Posted October 4, 2023 Report Share Posted October 4, 2023 Just had my letter about this recall - had the car about 6 months - so also assume the previous owner didn’t get the notice or ignored it now gotta book it in with OPC Cardiff as they are the nearest to me still 100 miles away though it will be interesting when they can do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJH Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Belated update. Work was done, ended up in for 5 days, they picked it up and dropped it off. A load of urgent items required, only authorised replacing the rear lower arms, other things I got sorted out. Surprised at how much was replaced, dread to think what it would have cost if I was paying out for it. Cheers Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
