Porsche recommends an annual service for cars driven at low miles per year. Anybody know what Bay Area dealers normally charge for this service? Is an oil change included in the price? Thanks guys!

golfnut is infamous around these parts
I just had one done. It included oil change, oil filter, air cleaner cartridge and pollen filter plus the usual BS list of inspections. They found that my horns were shorted out and not working which I never knew. Fixed it. Took the passenger door panel off after I complained about a rattle, found a source and fixed it. The total was $450 minus 15% discount for PCA member.

I just scheduled my TT to go into Carlsen's this Thursday for it's 15K. Actual mileage is around 13K but I was going to change the oil anyway, Do they suck the oil out of the Turbo's or do you have to request that.

I just hope they do a good job because if there is anything I am not seeing or hearing I want it fixed. It's like my third child. Nothing is just "good enough" I want the car in excellent working condition. When I ask her to run I don't want anything getting in the way.

Even my 10 year old daughter thinks I love the P-Car more then her. I really don't... I just love it as much. My 3 1/2 year boy as well of course.

Thanks for the input. Just called Brian Haske at Carlsen and scheduled an appointment tomorrow for low mileage annual service and brake flush. I normally go to Claridges for Porsche work but decided to give Carlsen a try.
