HI,,In the last year I have had an frequent antifreeze smell.
The Dealer could never find it because they said they didn't see any leaks or smell anything ,, I think they only checked rear those times..I do have a great sense of smell though.
The other day Markski was data logging my car and he noticed it also on the outside..Mark went right to the front and said its from there..The dealer must have never checked the front out..
Well 50,000 miles on my 2004,,bought it with 10,000.
Brought it to dealer today and they said they both side radiators had slight leaks.
And my extended warranty is going to pay ,,that warranty has paid for its self several times over.. ...
After Nov 2015 it will get expense without one..

 

might ask if you can get the csf radiators.pretty close on price

 

they won't warranty or replace aftermarket parts if pcna is paying for them. congrats on the coverage!

oh AFTERmarket warranty! doh! who knows. ask away lol

 

That's great! when looking before buying my Turbo I was considering a 2004 low mileage C4s and was told by dealer they couldn't get extended warranty from anyone.

 

I bought it in 11/09 after the one from Porsche expired,,paid around 3600 from an aftermarket company back then...

 

Just replaced all 3 radiators in my 03 with 130K miles on it. Was back in the mid-west and in single digit temps and the contraction and expansion the many bitterly cold days took out all 3 radiators. Had i left the car in CA it probably would have been fine.

Be glad you have a warranty. Replacing the 3 radiators at a Porsche dealer cost me $4300.

BTW, up to you but you might consider replacing the center radiator just because the tech is "there", but get a firm quote to know what the parts/extra labor cost (if any) will be.

 

The price at the Porsche dealer is $2700 for the 2 side ones, which is only $100 for me.

 

Wow those are $650 each side and $700 labor installed for all three.

 

The Porsche dealer charged 785 + tax for each one.
And total labor with diagnosis was 900.
Plus Antifreeze and shop costs.

 

That is steep glad I could do it myself if need be= know it didn't cost you that thankfully.

 

The CSF Radiators are a much better value for the price! Believe me I'm the owner of the company

 

HI,,Well if my middle one goes out after warranty in Nov.,, I will surely being buying yours..

 

Enjoy the car Ravi

 

I'm assuming 911-AL that you sold your car and if so what's next?

 

All I have to say is Al for president!!. guy was amazing to deal with.. Car should be here tomorrow or Friday..
