Hi All
My Macan nearly 3 years old..is it worth it to subscribe to these services and if so ..do the price differ from one opc to another?
And how many years would you advise…1,2 or the full 3 years.
I do very low mileage and so far less than 10k miles in three years!

Many thanks

I've had my SD from new since March 2016. I've extended twice now for 2 years a times. I'd definitely recommend it.
I had a new PDLS unit fitted, that's a £2k fix, Adblu pump failure also fixed under warranty and as I have Air, that's a matter of time as I'm on 89k....
The price is set by Porsche wherever you go. The only questions are, how long will you keep it for and are you happy self insuring your repairs.
Me? I'll renew again in a years time.

Yes, with the potential cost of repairs, and some known weak points on the cars, the extended warranty makes a lot of sense. I'll be buying another 2 years cover later this year.

Me too. Price per year is more expensive for one but the same for 2 and 3 years so 2 years at a time for me

+1 too. Took 3 years on my SD last year with assistance, as it goes a lot on the Continent.
Peace of mind with cost of repairs, and help if needed in strange places.

I just renewed for 2 years on Monday. I wouldn’t run an older Porsche without it. The assistance is just AA prestige and comes at a premium, but if convenience is key, then go for it.

Has the requirement for the 111 point check been dropped if you renew the warranty without a break?

You do not pay extra for it but the OPC did still check the car when I extended.
