QOUTE bmussatti:
OK Chris, good job doing the PPI!

Negotiate with the seller, and be firm. What is he willing to pay per hour? Can he provide the new parts? Will the P-dealer accept the parts? What does the P-dealer charge per hour? Within the answers to these questions you should be able to constuct a win-win negotiation.

Some money may still come out of your pocket, but you will have piece of mind the work was done properly.

One more thought. What about the guy that did the PPI? Can he share in the responsibility of "missing" the potentail obvious failing a/c compressor? I would ask him to refund a portion (25-50%) of your PPI fee. Worth a try.

Good luck. Brighter days are in front of you. And you will have a grin like this guy

That is excellent advice, I did just that and struck a deal with the dealer.

Legally, he could tell me to screw off and thatd be that, but thank God I found an honost man to deal with. We aren't getting it repaired at Porsche, but at a German Import center in SC. He is paying for 75% of all costs. When I get it back up here I am going to bring it to Porsche and have it checked out and get me a oil change while I am there.

I feel ecstatic!
