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.

16 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Does anyone have a handle on how much this service cost and is it really needed?. TIA

POST 2Original post

Of course the service "is really needed" BUT that doesn't mean you can't do it yourself!

POST 3Original post

Cost is different from dealer to dealer! You can also just do the service yourself i.e. plugs filters and oil and then just have the dealer read fault codes or get a reader yourself for Palm pilot

POST 4Original post

Just as an aside, would not having the dealer "stamp" the maintenance book void the warranty?

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

well that was what i was thinking but that is also a good pt regarding the warrenty. thanks for all your inputs

POST 6Original post

Hey Dranon, how do you get this info in your PDA, (palm)?, what do you need exactly!! thanks!.

POST 7Original post

Don I'm not sure what you mean by dealer stamping the book voiding warrenty? How does stamping the book void the warrenty? Baumtools.com sells the software to read the fault codes "DTC" diagnostic fault codes and reset them along with resetting check engine light for your Palm or Visor

POST 8Original post

When I had the 30k service done on my '99 996 C2 cab it was about $700 at Storms Motors in Southampton, N.Y.

POST 9Original post

My only point (which I didn't say very well) was that by having o/t a certified Porsche dealer do the inspection and "stamp" the maintenance record book, the warranty may be void if a problem ensues...that's all. As I said, I didn't put it very well.

POST 10Original post

The warrenty does not require a Porsche mechanic to do the maintenance! Nor are you required to have your book stamped for "proof" that maintenance was performed. I have never had any of my vehicles serviced by anyone except myself unless a warrenty work waqs required. I have NEVER been asked to show ANY proof that normal maintenance/service was performed. These little dealer stamps in service books only mean that the dealer did your service.. MAYBE helps for resale NOTHING ELSE!

POST 11Original post

Gee, I guess I was gullible on that score. Oh well, I take back what I said folks.

POST 12Original post

Sokay Don I just wanted to make sure people understand this. There seems to be a myth that the delaer HAS to do the servicing and "stamp" the book!

POST 13Original post

Cost is different from dealer to dealer! You can also just do the service yourself i.e. plugs filters and oil and then just have the dealer read fault codes or get a reader yourself for Palm pilot Dranon, you don't need the plugs changed. You need to change the pollen filter, too. It's under the shroud on the passenger side of the trunk. You need a torx screwdriver and just twist the thumbscrew. This shroud covers the filter, the strut tower mounts, and the strut brace. Best prices on Oil and Pollen filters are from Suncoast.

POST 14Original post

Yeah I know about the pollen filter... I didn't mean to give a comprehensive list but I'm happy to do that WITH instructions for anybody that wants to do it! I highly advise people to do it themselves.. kind of gets you in touch with your car AND very easy. BTW $700 is a BIG ripoff for this service!!!! Get a Palm or Visor and a fault code reader which will work for most all other cars BTW!!!

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

dranon, so let me see the big check list: 1)oil change 2)plugs(not sure) 3)air filters (engine and pollen) now did i leave anything out. tia

POST 16Original post
