I caught a flat one Saturday morning in Riverside while driving from Palm Desert to Los Angeles. I managed to exit the freeway and park at a nearby filling station. It was about 8am when I telephoned Porsche Roadside Assistance. They sent a flatbed which arrived about 45 minutes later. Since Porsche of Riverside’s service department was going to be closed, the flatbed transported me and my vehicle to Porsche of Beverly Hills, which is about 3 miles from where I live. PBH got me a new tire and had me on my way by 1pm. I’m still impressed.

I keep this in the frunk, I'm not about to spray that gu in my tire and hope it works. I would buy a spare tire kit (which they sell) before I did that.

roadiside will only tow you to a dealer and porsche dealer does not approve any type of tire repairs, patches/plugs etc. you have to replace the tire. i would never call roadside for a flat tire. if i cant fix it with my plug kit, ill call AAA and deal with it myself. my friend gives me tires at wholesale, im dont want to pay porsche dealer prices for tire and labor.
