So had a major service at Porsche official dealer yesterday on my 2011 Boxster S. All good except for a oil patch on one of the steering gators. Dealer says its a leak from steering rack and quote £2400 to replace including bushes which may have been contaminated. The repair of the rack is not on the cards. Warranty from the independent dealer I bought it from is questionable, saying its common for a "damp patch" and wouldn't worry about it personally .
He would sell this car with this issue no worries.
Advice needed Please.

Thanks for the response guys, it’s an in-house warranty with an independent Porsche specialist , looks like things have been sorted now for a new rack and any additional issue due to contamination. Fingers crossed for a hassle free repair.👍🏻
