My local dealer wants $700 to do plugs am I missing something? Did Porsche glod plate them or something?
Does anyone have a parts cost and dealer hours required to complete
I dont have a lift or ability to change myself.

 

whats your dealers labor rate?

 

$150 per Hr

 

I've done it without a lift. It's pretty easy.

 

I didn't think it was too easy... it took me about 4 hours of annoyance but at least the next time I do it, I know what I am doing. I just used jack stands... hardest thing for me was figuring out which bolts held the mufflers on...

For spark plugs and spark plug tubes, transom plug, grease, and anti-seize, it was a little under $100.

With a lift and at the dealership, it would seem that they are charging you more time than it should take a pro to do it... (imo)

 

That's pretty steep. Even at my local Porsche dealership, it was only $500.00, and that was on the high side. The indy's usually charge around $350.00.

 

It's not that hard... It might take you 4 hours the first time, but only an hour the second time - less than $80 in parts.
