ADias:

Carlos: Windshield installations are tricky. Temperature of installation and setting time. A new windshield should sit at least 24 h before the car is driven. Could it be that some of this was not done in your case?

Each replacement sat 24hrs but the difference is that this last replacement sat for several days instead of one, since it took me that long to pick up the car this time. I don't know if more than 24hrs is overkill and doesn't help any, but that is the only difference that I could see. All the replacements were done by the same Porsche dealer.

Its still a mistery to me how the first replacements could crack so easily, I mean it was ridiculous, any little normal hit meant a crack, whereas in other cars I drive or previous ex-996 it was no problem. This last replacement is still no stanadard tough, but at least its lasting over a year without the glass splitting (though I have several small chips on it).
