    Recaro Covers

    I have the Recaros in my 2014. The dealer replaced one of the upper covers under warranty. When I picked the car up yesterday the dealer said that the way the new cover had been folded meant that there was a crease in the alcantara when it arrived. He offered to get another set if the crease...

    Transmission Whine

    My 2014 has 1,000 miles and I have noticed a whine. It will only do it once it has thoroughly warmed up (engine oil pointing between the 'n' and the 'o' on the gauge). I don't think it is coming from the rear end. It is most pronounced at 3,500 - 4,000. It will go away if I press the...

    Export Orders

    After reading a few horror stories about dealers placing orders without allocations I am getting slightly nervous. My dealer informed me that for Cayman Islands there is no dealer allocation system. There is only one dealer and they don't sell that many. He seems genuine and he has ordered...

    Correct Car Cover?

    I have ordered a 2014. I live in the Cayman Islands and have been informed that the car cover is not an available option for the export market. I am in Miami in a couple of weeks and intend to pick one up then. Is part number AR3Z*19A412*A the same cover as the one shipped with the car?
