Can anyone tell me where to get a tire repair kit? The 612 seems to be missing its original one. I've been to The Collection looking for one, but I'm still waiting for a call back from their parts department ( 6 weeks later). Any help would be appreciated. Roger.
Roger - Call your original dealer... this stuff is VERY expensive, and should be included in a car with "books & tools" 173655 cloth bag for tire repair = $25.00 165537 foam cover for tire canister = $25.00 145506 zippered case for tire repair = n/a 152367 tire repair bottle = $350.00 I'm not sh1tting about those prices... they were in a recent FNA price list. The part numbers are strange, so I suspect the whole thing is actually sold as a kit for about $350, not as separate items. Unbelievable. That same crap can be bought at PepBoyz for $14.95. Nevertheless, it does affect the integrity of the car and it's completeness. -Daniel
It is unbelievable, but unfortunately I didn't notice that it was missing until recently (about 5 months after I took delivery).The way the 612 is made, the kit supposed to be inside a compartment on the trunk floor. I just never looked. Can you order one for me Daniel? If you PM me, I can give you a credit card #. Thanks, Roger.
Roger: Take a look at the paperwork that you got with the car. There should be a PDI (pre-delivery inspection) checklist. (If it isn't it IS in the dealer's files - they need to send a copy to FNA) If the canister is missing from that list, the dealer should make it right. Of course, the brainiacs that do the PDIs often just check ALL the boxes. Hope that helps, Scottie www.TheCarcierge.com
