Porsche Dealer Charged $5,000 to change Turbo's
SubscribeNormally these guys are pretty reasonable but they took my engine out to change to the AMS Billet Turbo's noting several bolts were rusted or heat sealed !!! Rather extreme not only that but they charge $500 for the Mobil One engine oil and I only had it serviced 2 months ago when guess what, they also charged me $500 for the engine oil 

Were the turbos in the price?
So, the obvious question is: Will you be giving them your repeat business after this?
I'm guessing that good shops are hard to come by in your area or something, but obviously there should be a limit to how much profit a shop makes on jobs such as these. Sheesh!

I guess I don't understand...What advantage is there to pulling the engine to get the turbos off? Even if you snapped the bolt you should be able to drill it out or weld a nub to crank it out from under the car. Is this any different on the 996TT?Originally Posted by RichardCH
