Suggestion
I fitted Sebro disks and Taxtar pads, look at Europarts, wear sensors and shims are a bit of a fiddle to fit, take your time and make sure its all clean first, refitting is straight forward.

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

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.

Had service done on car yesterday and header tank replaced as was cracked.
The garage have come back with a list of things to be looked at/done.
Can anyone give me an idea on cost of the jobs so i can compare when getting quotes.
New front Dics and pads required soon
N/s Condensor leaking
Front brake pipes corroded, replacements required
Play N/S/R drop link
O/s coil heat shield corroded, replacement required
A/C pipe slight sweat
Clutch heavy - i'm not sure what this means in relation to what work is required?
Apart from that everything fine!! [

I changed both condensers couple years back I'm sure I bought both for just under £200.
Not worth doing one they both need doing and driers too.
Liam, shame you missed service clinic at OPC.
Have they pressure tested or charged with dye A/C then?.
There are a few different suppliers for the condensers. I went with a brand thaw was apparently OEM, which cost a bit more. Had them sprayed black to match the rads too.
Just replaced my condensers and dryer, Design911 had a package including the O rings £200, went to Quickfit to get it gassed up £45. Easy job to remove nose and fit the new condensers.
Drop links are straight forward if not a little bit of a struggle to get at. Get the TRW ones as the material for the boots seems a lot better quality than other makes. I fitted a pair of front coffin boxes made by Hamberg, the king pin rubber boots were shot within a couple of months, very disappointing and a little expensive.
Coil pack heat shields are just a couple of 10mm bolts on each, around £10 each, took me longer to jack the car up than fit them. Apart from that the front and rear disks are a few hours work stripping and cleaning before fitting the new bits, straight forward plus search Youtube for Porsche brakes and the little videos are great if you have not tried the job before, especially how to adjust the hand brake ratchet, could save you hours fighting the rear disk trying to get it off!!! I fitted Sebro disks and Taxtar pads, look at Europarts, wear sensors and shims are a bit of a fiddle to fit, take your time and make sure its all clean first, refitting is straight forward.
When you say coffin boxes I'm guessing you mean as part of the wheel assembly. I had trw ones fitted on all 4 as the old ones where knackered. Trw actually make the originals then grind the Porsche badge off so I'm guessing they might make other 'proper' parts.
I'm relatively new to Porsche ownership, however in a short period I have learnt that both OPCs and some indies are excessively keen on getting as much £ out of you as possible!!! Clearly you want to drive a safe car, but it's worth asking yourself a few questions first - see comments below.
