Oil leak. Entire engine had to be dismounted and then re-installed
Oil change but dealer “discovered” slight oil leak under the cover where timing belt is located. Given $10,000 repair estimate to replace engine seals. I reported no oil leak or problems so WHY WOULD THEY LOOK THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE? In order to drum up business or to reduce trade in value since I was looking at new cars while at dealer. Asheville Porsche remember that name.

With little over 11K miles on my 15 Macan S, I have been noticing a loud whining noise during cold start (it does not do it all the times) and it sounds just like a power steering pumps that is low on fluid. This noise lasts for a second during cold starts. Dealer says it is normal as the sound I am hearing is engine oil being pumped to upper section of the engine.
There is also second noise from AC compressor which I hear more frequently while the engine is idling or stopped. As soon as I turn the AC off, the noise is gone.
Have taken it to dealer twice for both noises but dealer can not duplicate the noises.
