Looking to get 995c4s serviced and a few other bits looked at which could probably be done at any garage but also want to get the borescoped to check for wear as sometimes on start up I get a big glob of smoke (not everytime and mostly after being left for a long time).

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
14 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Hi
Looking to get 995c4s serviced and a few other bits looked at which could probably be done at any garage but also want to get the borescoped to check for wear as sometimes on start up I get a big glob of smoke (not everytime and mostly after being left for a long time).
I know that Bartletts claim to be Porsche specialists but they also say they are BMW and Audi!
Twg in Peterborough spoke to them on the phone, didn't really feel it with them.
So does anyone have any recommendations for a trusted specialist around that area?
Not sure if its close enough, but German Autos in Uppingham boroscoped my 997 and did all things that needed doing. They have some classics in there. Paul very nice chap. 30 years Porsche.
I don't think there is really much around here, TWG ... i'm not sure. How about SCS on papyrus road, more of a Ford specialist but do a lot of engine work. Smoking seems to be standard when they have been stood for a while.

TWG in Peterborough always used to have a decent recommendation.
I have never used them myself, but have been there and they seemed decent people.
Spoke to TWG a while ago when I had the Cayenne, bloody minded and unhelpful came to mind, I didn't use them in the end although my Cayenne had something in the history that was done by TWG.

Very happy with the service from Paul at German Autos
Sorry a bit late, only just seen this.
I have used Martin at Pristine for work on my panameras, knows his stuff, easy to deal with and prices are fair.

He's worked on a number of my cars, Porsche and Bmw, and been good.
Thought Bartletts were just Bmw?
Maybe they've taken on a Porsche technician?
They're certainly good for Bmw as they were technicians at Murketts Bmw before it closed down.

Thanks I'll give them a shout too.
Barletta were always bmw now they are advertising as porsche and vague specialists which to me dilutes the specialist bit!

It look like Bartletts have expanded the business then.
For Mercs most of the trade around here use Stuart at Star Autos in Alconbury, he is very, very, good.
But of course being very, very, good means that he's quite booked up nowadays.
