This is not a probability of success.

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

No only new to me when it had done 9,000 miles, it was the major service at 16,000 that was a shock.

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.

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

PistonHeads: 1 discussions

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

Can anyone recommend an alternative to main dealer servicing in the Portsmouth/Southampton area? has anyone tried Brookspeed in Eastleigh?

POST 2Original post

Thebe said: Can anyone recommend an alternative to main dealer servicing in the Portsmouth/Southampton area? has anyone tried Brookspeed in Eastleigh? If you visit the Map in the sticky thread at the top of the porsche forum, are there any near you? Just a thought.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks just looked It mentions Regal in Southampton, I haven't heard of them. Anybody recommend them?

POST 4Original post

Hi, I live near Portsmouth but take my Cayman to Guildford OPC who have offered 10% discount on servicing. The 986 Boxster goes to Autotecnics in Chichester who do a good job for a fair price.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, so far I have used Guildford for its first major service and the new one in Portsmouth for a minor. Both times they seem to find extra things that 'need' doing, which is hard when you haven't budgeted for an extra £500 or so.

POST 6Original post

Just had my 996 serviced at Brookspeed (and Blib has just bought a car there too) - they weren't "cheap" but they did a good job and didn't push me to get anything else done. Would recommend.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Mikeyr, that is really useful. A guy told me that they used a garage in Grayshott near Hindhead and he has a serious track spec 911 Anyone else used them. And for anybody reading this, I do know how to spell dilemma, just a typo, annoys me everytime I log on.

Both times they seem to find extra things that 'need' doing, which is hard when you haven't budgeted for an extra £500 or so. I'm guessing you have a new car as it was the first major was it not covered by the warranty?

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

POST 10Original post

Thebe said: No only new to me when it had done 9,000 miles, it was the major service at 16,000 that was a shock. Shame it didn't have any warranty when you bought it, so I'm guessing you bought it privately then. What year is it?
