Hi All,

It turns out that my 'chirping sound' was coming from a broken exhaust bracket. In your collective experience would you expect this to be covered under the Porsche Warranty ? It looks like metal fatigue to me not corosion or wear and tear ??

I had the same issue last year, and the (left) exhaust was replaced under warranty.
The only caution I would add is that mine was on a 2007 (Dec 2006) car with 20k miles, fPsh and well looked after, so the question of wear and tear did not come into it. I believe this may have been different if the car had covered a high mileage etc.

plate & weld it - £20 in the right direction will fix this and then everyone can continue happy!

It'll be covered. They'll replace the left exhaust.

I hope not, I could be wrong, but it looks like the right exhaust in the photo!

Mines Sept 2006 (MY07) and only 29k miles too.......and I like to think very well looked after too. Did you have it done at Hatfield ??
