Read evidence and context
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.

Suggestion
There's no fixed price servicing anymore as most OPC are now franchised so they set their own labour charges.

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.

I have a base 992.1 which is due for its second service. I have extended warranty so would like to stay with OPC. My nearest OPC has quoted £2450, which seems excessive to me but maybe that’s the normal rate. Would you share your experience. Thanks
Hands up anyone who's received an OPC quote they felt was not excessive !
You either ring around other OPC's and get a cheaper like for like quote and batter your local OPC with it, or , better still go to a more qualified local indie.
I know that much my friend. Whole point if a forum is to share information and knowledge. I asked other 992.1 owners if their experience and how much they paid. Thanks for your response anyway.
Price is in the ballpark of a first quotation, but you should be able to beat if you shop around and have flexibility to travel. See post in the linked thread by @FredMarsBar. A very broad generalisation is PRG and Sytner OPC less able to discount, so best to try some of the smaller ones, like Lovetts or Bowker depending on your location.

My four year service was last April, I am in south Bucks. My suggestion is to email a couple of other OPC, good suggestion of who above. My local OPC wanted £2500 for the four year service on my 992. I reached out to a couple of others and for the sake of a hours drive, I saved £700. Got a new Taycan for a couple of days too and had a wander around the Ferrari dealership opposite.
I have now obtained 4 x quotes ranging from £2125, £2275,£2450 and £2780. All from OPCs in the Northwest of England for the same job. Will go with the cheapest. A bit confusing to see the prize difference though.
