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.

7 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

Hey guys, found a car I am interested in around LA (02� 4S 100k miles, tiptronic). I contacted a local shop to get an estimate for a PPI. Do you feel this price is fair and covers everything I would want checked out? $450 for the PPI. It includes a visual inspection of the car on the rack. Test drive the car to make sure everything feels right. We run a control unit scan on our factory PIWIS tester and also check for overevs. We then list everything that the car needs and try to give you estimates to fix the items. Thanks guys!

POST 2Original post

That is a very fair price. The quotes I got a few months ago in SoCal ranged from $500 to $1,200. In reality the important part is how good of a job they do going through the car to identify potential issues. Ask if they have a checklist or sample report so you can get a feel of what they look for.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Fantastic insight. Thank you for the price range. Reaching out now for a sample PPI report.

POST 4Original post

I just had one done at Scientific Automotive. Talk to Jack. I was happy with what he did. My PPI was on a turbo, so there was no bore scoping involved. Not sure what he would charge on a 4s

Callas Rensport may be the best shop for PPI, Tony Callas's shop is in Hawthorne CA, (South Bay)

POST 6Original post

Tell Tony Callas we are waiting for new episodes of The 900 Series. I paid $120 south of Boston for everything listed above. Finally a perk to living in Mass.

POST 7Original post

I'm in Maine and got a PPI (Post-purchase inspection, in my case) for the cost of a couple of hours of service time at the local Porsche dealership. So, between $2-300 in my case.
