Overall, I hope to pay less than �500/�600 (call it $800 to $1,000) for the entire servicing, hopefully with what I need to change/correct too.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Guys and thanks for reading this post, I bought last March 06 a 996 C4 Cab from 10/02 with circa 20,000 miles and a Porsche warranty. 10,000 miles later I am due next Friday for my first servicing at my Porsche Center in London. I had a few questions for those of you who have a great knowledge of Porsche and servicing it, as I am a little worried by the price expectation. I realised a kid's dream buying it but cannot afford $5,000 servicing per annum. I was told not to worry, but still! I guess they will: 1 - change the oil of engine and check levels, 2 - check any RMS problems, On top of the usual servicing, I was wondering if I could ask them to do the following: 3 - I need a light adjustment as they illuminate way too low and I have a hard time seeing the road (any cost guessing would be appreciated?) 4 - I need to adjust the wheels as the car tends to slightly go on the right when it should go straight (any cost guessing would be appreciated?) 5 - I need to change the whipers. I tried to look for some but could not find any down here (any cost guessing would be appreciated too?). Overall, I hope to pay less than �500/�600 (call it $800 to $1,000) for the entire servicing, hopefully with what I need to change/correct too. Thank you very much for your inputs guys. JC

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for your help. Hopefully UK prices will be in line with US prices. My headlights are xenon. I guess I could adjust them manually with a nice white wall or is it more complex than that? JC
