I’ve noticed this ‘paint’ finish defect on our Macan. It’s under OPC used car warranty. Would this be covered?

That would have been covered under the original 3-year manufacturers warranty, but highly-unlikely to be covered by the extended used car warranty as the B-post trim is plastic and cosmetic. Happy to be corrected.

This is where a full OPC book pays you back vs a Indy one.

Porsche offer a 10 year body work warranty, the caveat is you need a full OPC history of stamps as they also do a full body work check and stamp at the same time your car gets serviced.

If you have a full OPC stamped book you stick a good chance.
But it will be a fight, but at least you stick a better chance with full set of body check OPC stamps.

Once you take a car outside OPC servicing you have zero chance after 3 years.
