I'm exploring getting a post-2015 Cayenne (perhaps even a turbo )

Reading around it seems quite a few have had one, if not two transfer box issues, requiring replacement.

If I was to buy a car without a warranty (I like to live dangerously), and it ended up requiring a transfer box replacement, what is the likely cost?

cheers

The Porsche warranty is under £1,000 per year and the chocolate transfer box melts on a regular basis and probably costs about the same...
Thanks,

Looks like it makes sense to pop it on warranty as soon I buy one, however, I can imagine the pre warranty check will explicitly look for a transfer box issue.

cheers

The symptoms are jerkiness when pulling away and stage noises from underneath, so quite obvious if it's present.
Thanks, you sound like a man who speaks from experience.
