Highest mileage 718s - any issues so far?

Ok, so 18,000 miles in 17 months is not exactly high mileage, but I was wondering if anyone had encountered any problems running one day to day. I know there have been a couple of (hopefully isolated) issues reported on delivery but for me, other than having to take it back to the dealer once to get the tracker reset after 12 months (as Vodafone lost the signal) I’ve had no issues at all to report and it really has been fault free motoring as you would expect. (I think the only other minor issue I had is the PCM froze once whilst in nav mode, but this was not a problem as it just rebooted itself.). Any one had any problems so far ? (Any smart-arsed comments about ‘engine sound’ should be posted in the other thread!)

Great update, good to see people actually using them - 20k? since Jan is impressive mileage.

Also reminded me to book the six year service - more 1,200 than your OPC Leeds quote but then I am in the South East. A year's warranty extension coming in at 660 or 835 with Porsche Assist.

Coming up to 50k now and I just finished a tour of Ireland, superb scenery and driving roads. Managed to get from the West Coast over there and back to the SE, UK via Holyhead on one tank, that's over 500 miles averaging 41 mpg so can't complain really although I am usually in the 20s day to day. That PDK 7th gear seems particularly fuel efficient if you're doing any motorway driving.
