We replace the coils on about 1/3 of the cars we do plug jobs on for CPO, they crack(due to age) and need replacing. Not a big deal.

Do you have a ball park figure for this repair? “Not a big deal” still = $$$$

A set of coils can be had for ~$290. Easy to DIY replace.

~$45 for OE

Bring it over DR

I meant not a big deal to exchange them. Not that they don't cost money. It is a simple exchange.

when you get a cpo car, you expect service to be up to date. i got the car from suncoast. they said they did cpo service and put new tires on it. with 7400 miles. i found it needed an alignment, which should have been done when then did the tires. it needed a diff change, and an oil change. these things should have been done simply based on age. the door panels are coming unglued at the window line, a known problem, which should have been addressed with the cpo. i am also having some issues with the rear hatch latch. the trim fit around the oil fill cap makes it hard to access. the driver window switch sometimes takes a couple presses to get down. i really like the car, but this has not been a great experience so far. i think i owe porsche a letter. at least my first two cpo pcars were good.

rant done.
