Pretty sure it must be - not a wear & tear item?

Yes, I had a spoiler control failure fixed under warranty. Quite an expensive fix

Yes my rear spoiler is now being fixed under warranty , it is also having the turbos replaced under warranty could have been a very expensive week .

Interesting, OPC always changed things on my car when I didn't think there was anything wrong had a feeling there were drumming up business as it was a bit quiet for them. Didn't care as covered under warranty.

Had my rear spoiler fixed on my 996t by OPC. Same problem, was only going up and down on one side. One of the rams was knackered. Had the complete kit installed which was cheaper and included both rams, motors and lines.

Cost about 1200 inc VAT.
