Stones thrown up on Dubai’s motorways chip windscreens every day, and summer heat makes a small chip spread into a crack quickly. A Porsche windscreen is more than glass: depending on the model and options it can carry a rain and light sensor, acoustic laminate, a heated or heat-reflective coating, a head-up display area and the camera for Lane Keep Assist and traffic sign recognition. Orange Auto replaces Porsche windscreens with the correct glass for your car’s options, and calibrates the front camera afterwards on models that have one.
We check the chip or crack and tell you whether repair is possible or the windscreen needs replacing.
We use your VIN to identify the correct windscreen for your options, such as sensors, coatings, head-up display and camera mounting.
Trims, wipers, the mirror cover and sensors are removed with care, and the old glass is cut out without damaging the surrounding paint.
The bonding area is cleaned and primed, and any bare metal is treated to prevent corrosion under the seal.
The new windscreen is bonded with urethane adhesive, aligned and left to cure for the safe drive-away time.
The rain and light sensor, mirror, camera cover and trims are refitted and tested.
On models with a front camera, the camera is calibrated so driver assistance features work correctly, followed by a check drive.
Warning lights after glass work? See Porsche electrical repair. Water leaks or wind noise from the frame may also need body repair.
A small chip outside the driver’s line of sight can often be repaired. In the summer heat, it can spread into a crack in days.
Head-up display, acoustic and coated windscreens are different parts. The wrong one can cause a blurred display or sensor faults.
If your Porsche has Lane Keep Assist or traffic sign recognition, the camera must be calibrated after a new windscreen.
Avoid car washes and slamming doors for the first day or two so the adhesive cures fully.
Can my Porsche windscreen chip be repaired?Often, if the chip is small and not in the driver’s direct line of sight. Bring it in early.
Does my Porsche need camera calibration after a new windscreen?If it has a front camera for driver assistance, yes. We check this when quoting.
How long does a replacement take?Usually a few hours, including curing and calibration where needed.
