I bought a CPO 2011 turbo in 2015 for from a Porsche dealer for half the window sticker. Within the first few months it died on me twice. It started after several minutes but it’s scary driving along and having the engine just die! The dealer replaced the high pressure fuel pump the first time then it did it again. Then they replaced the low pressure fuel pump and the fuel control box and that fixed it. A tail light went out that was covered by the warranty. Just before the 2 year warranty ran out I had the dealer give it a once over and they replaced the transfer case.
When the warranty expired Porsche had not yet recalled it for the camshaft adjuster bolts but I rolled the dice. About a month later the recall came out and I had the bolts replaced.
I’ve replaced brake pads, air filters, a battery, and done oil changes myself with a durametric to reset the computer. I’ve also cleaned the sunroof drains. The horns were barely working so I replaced them with hella horns which required removing the front bumper. I recently changed the transfer case fluid since it’s a known weak spot.
I had an air bag light come on that I couldn’t reset but it went away after a few days.
