HHhhhmmmm! I think I have the same issue. Just bought it as a CPO in April and the original warrany expires this coming February. Think I'll wait a little and see how it wears over the summer and then if it gets worst, discuss with the Dealer when I take it in for my Fall oil change.

having just the roof changed without correcting the issue underneath is pointless. The roof must be rubbing somewhere to fry the material.

I have not had a chance to really look at mine but its going in next week so i am going to put a lot of pressure on porsche UK to sort this out.

I agree....for me the first step is to get them to agree that what is happening is not normal wear and tear but a defect as the material should not rub and fray. Once that happens and I can get a new top then they need to figure out why it is happening in the first place...Ideally they test and fix with the old top

dealer did not acknowledge it. said that it was normal wear. Good thing is that it hasn't gotten any worse.
