I had my first service at my local porsche/audi dealer today. Spent a grand on complete front brakes, oil change, brake fluid bleed. Warranty covered reapir of locking gas cover. When reviewing my bill, they charged me $10 for a loaner car (audi A4). The charge is nominal but I was very surprised as I had never paid anything for a loaner car from a saab dealer..anyone else get charged by the dealer for this? I would have been less annoyed had they added to shop fees and not told me about it!

Nope Porsche should cover it while the car is under warranty

Merc of SD charged me 20 bucks for a loaner (230 Komp) at my 3k quick/service. Pioneer Porsche has Enterprise.

dropped my 987 off at Walter's in Riverside a few weeks ago to have them investigate a few random things on the car - they have an enterprise inside the mercedes division of the dealership. Nissan Maxima was free - $15 to upgrade to MB - I opted to keep the $15 since I was driving straight to the hospital where the car was gonna sit in the parking lot all day. If I would have been able to do some driving that day, I would have taken the MB - Nissan was a nice car, but felt like a bus compared to my Box!

mine doesnt charge as long as you bring it back with a full tank. if you dont, 6 bucks a gallon! they also said they would have to kill me if i smoked in it or drove it thru the easy tag lane on the toll road.
