Hi everyone.
A number of members have experienced a CEL displayed which has subsequently been diagnosed as a GPF failure. (See other thread) The cost of replacement is £5000 to £6000. I would like to hear from members who have suffered in this way. Please reply on here or, if you would care to send me a PM or email, I will use any information in a ‘no name’ manner.
Some of the issues to be explored:
- Any replacements under factory warranty (or refusals)
- Any replacements under extended warranty (or refusals)
- Costs of OPC replacement
- Costs of independent Porsche specialist replacement
- Alternative diagnoses E.g. sensors, which have successfully cured the CEL.
- Successful work arounds.
Everything suggests that the GPF should not fail with reasonable use and this is a big bill. It would be good to be able to provide members with the best approach If this happens to them.
Thanks, John
