Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Figures quoted are ballpark including a brake fluid change but from other posts you may need to shop around to avoid silly quotes from OPCs.

Unsuccessful attempt
You pay your money and make your choice I guess - warranty will be renewed on mine. Just had a control unit fail on my Mini JCW - £700 so far and still not right - fortunately still under warranty.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Our cars all being ~6 years old have any of you had the 6 year intermediate service? What’s the going rate for what is predominantly an oil/filter change and a visual inspection? Thanks in advance

POST 2Original post

If it's similar to a GT4 then I paid £750 including a drive belt that actually wasn't due but for £70 I thought why not.

POST 4Original post

Had mine done at Cameron Porsche. £806 inc VAT

POST 5Original post

It will depend on what’s included of course - I think from memory plugs are due at 4 years and belt/ air filters at 6 per the service schedule. Had the latter included in my 4 year so this time round in a couple of weeks will be a bit less painful! Figures quoted are ballpark including a brake fluid change but from other posts you may need to shop around to avoid silly quotes from OPCs.

POST 6Original post

anonymous said: [redacted] No… never had one except manufacturers on new cars.

POST 7Original post

You pay your money and make your choice I guess - warranty will be renewed on mine. Just had a control unit fail on my Mini JCW - £700 so far and still not right - fortunately still under warranty. Cars are complex and for the most part not mendable these days.
