Anyone know how long the prepaid XM service period is on a new Panamera. Just got a new P4S and was going to call XM, but figure I have at least 3 months. Someone told me Porsche pays for two year service. Can call the dealer Monday, but curious if someone has the answer on here.

Thanks.

 

3 Months

 

Make sure you let your XM service expire before you renew it. If it expires they will send you some great promotions to re-activate your service. I got 6 months for $20 including traffic.

 

is traffic a separate add-on?

Yes - traffic and data is separate

 

Traffic is extra BUT if you let it expire they will offer you all-inclusive deals. I always do the 3 or 6mos option because the price will always go lower. Watch the billing tho because they will try and double dip.

 

How's the reception on XM? I had Sirius and it was TRASH.

 

I am on the XM trial, however as a previous Sirius subscriber, I missed some of the Sirius stations, like Howard Stern.. I called and they transferred me to a customer service rep, who threw in the "Best of Sirius" as part of my free three month trial.

Sirius/XM is unrelenting in the efforts to retain customers.. I cancelled my prior Sirius subscription when I sold my last car, but that has not stopped them from calling and emailing me several times to ask if I would renew on that subscription...

 

Make them work to keep you. They will call towards the end of the trial (and send you a bill for a full price plan); tell them what you are willing to pay, that will be your new plan. After the second "trial" ran out, the bill was the same rate for a year; might keep it...

 

I'm listening to Sirius right now, and it must be the clear blue sky and sunny weather that is making it cut in and out. What a joke!

 

I always call and ask directly for cancelation Dept. They always give me 1/2 price rather than let me cancle. Been doing it for 5 years now. Never have I paid full price. Same with my wifes Mercedes GL350. Just caus eyou have money doesn't mean you should give it away.
