Since you are in So. Cal, I recommend Hergesheimer Motor Sports in Lake Forest. Good indy shop with reasonable prices.

I have had a Porsche factory rep tell me that having a major service performed on a low milage car every three years is recommended..

I do oil change only on odd-numbered years (1, 3, 5, etc.), then I alternate minor and major services on even-numbered years (minor at 2, 6, 10, etc. and major at 4, 8, 12, etc.).

See the attached brochure from Porsche. It's a few years old but still applies.
