Charlie's 2008 Porsche 997 turbo

I fully understand the issues you’ve been dealing with and why I left the automotive service occupation over 30 years ago. That is also why if I can’t do it myself, I pay the stealership the big bucks to do it for me. As of today and 11 years, 9 months and one day of my ZHP ownership, the only ones that have worked on her are the dealer and the tire store. At the tire store, a full picture set is taken of the wheels before and a walk through inspection with the service writer. I also do the pre walk threw at the dealership.

Yep! I hear ya Guy! I have a great relationship with Porsche Service at my dealer and on the most part at the Collision Center. They all know my car so what happened was an unfortunate accident that I am happy I was able to correct. As for the glass shop... that shop has installed two windshields on two separate BMWs that I have owned without so much of an issue so when it was time to do my Porsche I had no reason to expect this abortion from this glass shop... anyway, what is done is done and I have to deal with the end result but in the end that F-tard glass shop is paying a lot more than they bargained for thru their insurance... yes, I got so much more in frustration throughout the process. Enough so that going forward I too will be going to the dealer for any items I cannot do myself...

What’s the real shame is, I’d say maybe less than 10% of people have any pride or care for their cars. To most it like an expensive throw away.

I may have missed it, but why did you have the windshield replaced?

Def a bummer all around but at least it’s fixed and you have a BRAND NEW DASH in your car (which is awesome)

See the crack in the picture Jacob? That was given to my Porsche’s windshield when I was in upstate NY driving home from Calabogie this summer. That’s why I scheduled my windshield replacement then all this b***sh** unfolded thanks to some hack installer...

That damage to the dash and the imprints on your seat piss me off and it’s not my car

Hey Charlie, sucks that you had to go through all this time, aggravations, and frustration to get this resolved. I hope the second windshield reinstall goes better...

I was not too happy when all of this happened Stuart...

Ayan, it did suck and was very frustrating having to go thru all of this and I'm still not finished. I will have to have my windshield reinstalled because the glass shop botched this up as well.... As frustrating all of this was just to have a brand new windshield installed I will eventually get this all sorted and my Porsche will be perfect again...
