Looking to trade my 09 M3 for a Cayenne GTS. I've never owned Porsche and don't know what to expect as far as maintenance costs. Can anyone please share experienced costs for brakes, oil changes, spark plugs, etc? Are there scheduled maintenance intervals for the year that have to be completed? If so, please share those costs as well.

Thanks.

 

The only thing I did from mile 3 to mile 30K was normal regular oil changes. At 30k I did what porsche recommended. Oil changes are mobile 1. From what I remember if I supplied the oil the change was $70.00, if I didn't it was around $100.00 both I felt reasonable. Nothing else has gone wrong or excessive wear. Perfect so far knock on wood. $43k now.

 

Thanks bud. How much was the 30k if you don't mind me asking.

 

Honestly I can't remember but in comparison to even my escalade it was very comparable. Call a local dealer, they'll give you pricing an what it involves. It's minor when you think of what your driving.

 

my GTS was serviced about once a year. i believe it was around 300 each. but i had to replace break pads each time for the two years i had the car and it got expensive....

 

Thanks. Do you remember the cost for pads?

 

Yours is for sale for $43k or it has 43k miles?

 

43k miles. Dealer will buy for ~ 50k when TT arrives.

 

pads were around 400 per axle. but this was complicated because few dealers insist to change pads and rotors together. i even got a quote for 1000 which i still don't understand.

 

Labor included below from Dealer. My GTS is now out of warranty, so I may start to shop around to the independent shops around town to see how they compare. On my X5, I saved money by going to Dinan instead of the dealer, so I'm guessing I can probably do the same with the GTS as well.

36K service approx = $1K
Front brakes including pads/rotors = $1K
48K service approx = $700
Rear brakes including pads/rotors = $900

 

god my dealer wanted $2200 to do the brakes on my 08 Turbo. Outside brakes the rest is not bad at all. Since your getting a GTS make sure you get a CPO, can't go wrong with a 7yr/100k warranty.

 

You can do your own oil changes and brake replacement for a fraction of the cost. Use Suncoast for parts and do it yourself.
