I've used him for several things now and enjoy knowing him personally, and that he personally knows my car now.

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.

Wow, that looks like an oil change, cabin and air filter change, spark plug change and a whole long list of checks.
If I get a dealer PPI, will it cover all those checks? So that what remains is the oil, plugs, and filters?
I just called my dealer cause I was wondering about the same thing. I bought my PCA vehicle last Feb with 25k on it got 29k now. He said I dont need to do a 30 k service they did a yearly inspect on the car b4 they sold it to me. But my question is do I need to have it done to maintain my Porsche Cert Approved Warranty?
No they dont change the plugs at 30. 60k they change them. 30k and 45k service is just inspect his and that. I can tell if my seatbelts work myself. Not pay the stealer $1200. Get your oil change every 12 to 15 and pay up I guess at 60k
When I bought my 2000 C4 Cab I inquired to the local dealer about their service fee and what they did - came in around $1,200. I then spent a little time and found a very reputable independent mechanic and he did the same service for around $400. I've used him for several things now and enjoy knowing him personally, and that he personally knows my car now.
