Description of the problem	Sometime in 2011 i noticed the car began to hesitate when shifting gears (automatic). I was on a long drive from florida to my home in maryland when the first incident occurred. I thought it was just a thing until it began to happen routinely at all speeds. I took it to the dealer and they advised that the valve body would need to be replaced at a cost of $4,500. I missed the warranty period by 60 days so i would have to pay the cost. The truck only had 75,000 miles on it as i usually used my other car for my daily commute. I'm letting the vehicle sit until i can afford such a costly repair. I got the vehicle from a dealer in ny with only 3000 miles on it. I'm certain this was a defect that porsche knew about and they should offer to foot the bill for the repair.
