Just curious to see what people are paying for an oil and filter change at a Porsche dealer.

Let me know.

~$160 for oil and filter. There's a DIY page somewhere, and
that's probably the way to go. Apparently it's too easy.

The dealer should NOT charge anything for an oil change.
Cheap Fuc*s!!!
( under warranty at least)

I agree with Joe...do it yourself....very very easy!

1st time around...dealer charged me 260.00! And they dont even drain out the oil in the turbos!

Where's the DIY page?

On a side note, how hard is it to change the spark plugs on a 996TT? Anybody have some step by steps? Someone todl me you need to remove the rear bumper. Is this true?
