Tow the car to the dealer, and the diagnosis is will require new engine @ $10-12K. Some owners have success having Porsche to pay for the engine, but they still have to pay for the installation - @$3-$4K. How can do you know if your engine is not affected by this engine blowing issue????

You can't really. There is no test that can spot the issues that are involved.
It really is a crap shoot. Sorry I have to say it, but the engine is far from robust.
