DashCam

I know fhere is a whole thread about this, but if I may ask is it true that in UK if you fit any alternative brand other than porsche. That would risk us being out of warranty if any electric circuit problem happens.

Id doubt that. I have a FITCAMX and it’s been at Porsche a few times.

How is it performing? And did you fit it to record while parking?

In the event of a warranty claim, the onus would be on Porsche to prove that the fitting of a 'non-Porsche OEM' dash camera, directly contributed to the failure of any electrical component i.e. the electrical component you may be having issues with.

The FitCamX simply taps into (not spliced into) the rain sensor wire in a piggyback manner. So if your rain sensor starts playing up, I guess they could point towards your FitCamX and blame it......but if there's an electrical issue with another component elsewhere on the car, the FitCamX would have nothing to do with it.

Porsche aren't unique in this, most manufacturers are similar. I had a FitCamX fitted to my BMW M340i and my M3, BMW main dealer didn't bat an eyelid at it.

My Taycan has been back at my local OPC a number of times since it was fitted and all they specify you do is disable it (and any rear camera) prior to it being dropped off to them. I just remove the SD Card from the FitCamX and disconnect the Road Angel Halo I have as a rear camera, which is plugged into the USB port in the boot.
