I believe if you have your car in a Porsche dealer under any type of warranty work they are going to use genuine Porsche parts because of the Porsche connection and familiarization...And a reason to stand behind the work/part.
In my past experiences most dealers don't want to get involved with out side parts because there are bad replacement parts as well as good or better ones,,they don't want to get caught in the middle...Plus there cost on the Porsche parts are a lot better for there profit potential.
