But you are correct IT SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN and Porsche should have addressed ir years ago.
(1) I have done several of these, it is both easy and simple, but perhaps that is just my view.

(2) Let's look at the perspective of Porsche fixing it: When the IMS failures occurred, and $20K engines became boat anchors, Porsche did everything in the power to avoid taking responsibility, and even continued that tact in light of the class action against them. And you expect them to take responsibility for some dried out foam that is more annoying than a real problem? Good luck with that...........
