I'm really curious as to how they'd calculate the cost of use of the vehicle as I suspect I am going to have to go down this route with Porsche for my problem child 991.
I don't have the professional background or relevant personal experience to help with that question. Considering what you have told us here about your issue you'd probably be well-advised to contact a lawyer specialising in consumer protection matters.
Not trying to introduced semantics into this, but by my understanding its not an issue of "cost of use" but of a "provision for benefit" accrued to you during your ownership, and in your position I'd be inclined to argue a case for the "benefit" having been seriously impaired due to the dealer(s) inability to fix the problem despite your complaints over an extended period.
Thanks Fritz - We don't have the "Lemon Law" in the UK, but we do have the 1979 Sale of Goods Act (recently replaced by the Consumer Rights Act) which offers some rudimentary protection from poor quality. I may (sadly) have to engage professional help in the near future as I feel I'm still not really making any progress - but I'm guessing their focus is elsewhere right now (not that it should affect me!)
Interestingly I watched the Nick Murray youtube posts again today and he had the exact same problem (albeit attributed initially to the sunroof). Odd since Porsche continue to claim they've never seen this issue before...
