These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

if the mods were quite straightforward (and I can't imagine they changed alot for the 04my), it would be worth considering for all 3.6 cars.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

According to the service schedule for my 996TT servicing should be done every 2 years, but I've just received a reminder from the OPC who did the last service that another one is due just 1 year later. They are also suggesting an air conditioning service at either £50 (for a clean) or £200 (refrigerant change). Views?

POST 2Original post

Hmm, I think its every 12k miles or 1 year the service, whichever comes first. As for the aircon service, do it at an indy for more than 50% cheaper.

POST 3Original post

For the 996 NA it's every 2 years for cars manufactured after 2003, well that's what the service guy at OPC west London told me today. Not 100% if that works for the Turbo or GT engine...

POST 4Original post

The later 996s (04my on) were 2 yrs or 12k miles. Dunno if that applied to TTs. The £50 clean for the aircon seemed good value- but I'm sure they'll tell you something else needs doing!

POST 5Original post

All cars MY2004 onwards are 2 years 12k miles servicing, my GT3 has a 2yr service interval.

POST 6Original post

But do they still recommend an annual inspection? I wonder what was changed... if the mods were quite straightforward (and I can't imagine they changed alot for the 04my), it would be worth considering for all 3.6 cars.
