rms boxster 3.2s PLEASE HELP

[Guest]

just noticed an oil leek on my 2001 boxster s - It has been out of warranty 2 months. I took it to an independent and he said it aint worth replacing as it will go again - just keep your eye on the oil. He said porsche know about it and are told to cover it up!
I've read a few stories about porsche GB replacing these FOC. Can anyone help on the bestway to go about this? and what I need to say to them?
Stratstones are my local porsche dealers.
Would anyone who's had porsche pay for the work back me up if I argue that they've done it for one so we all must be entitled to it?????

The leek seems to be fairly pad a 2 inch circle after parking over night, or is this normal - should I get it fixed urgently??
Has anyone been to BBC watchdog or topgear to make this problem public?

There is a link to one of the major threads in the FAQ it explains a lot of the technical background about the RMS.

Dave,

this is too much of a leak to ignore. You say out of warranty 2 months, was this an extended warranty? If you give me a call, I can talk you through your options - my phone number is the PPost or on the website

Dave,

Just wanted to say sorry that you're suffering this problem.

Some people do get it done under goodwill, some don't.

My old boxster suffered from it and the dealer was excellent. The car had been bought from there and serviced there so he applied for goodwill and I got it. Thankfully didn't have to pay a penny for my RMS.

It can be done - wishing you good luck.

Dawn
