Turbo Oil Change
Hey Guys I wanted to bring in my Turbo for an oil change and was quoted a 379.99!!!!!!

Anyone have a shop preferably a dealer in the bay area they use that has a more reasonable price?

Thanks.

My last two oil changes at Porsche of Fremont were $189 and $169. Give them a call and see if they're running a special. If you're a PCA member, they might have a discount as well.

F1crazydriver showed me how to do it. These cars are one of the easiest that I have ever seen. However material by itself is about $100 using M1.

Just talked to P of Fremont, you were right 185.95!!!! Not sure why such a huge delta in costs between two dealers.

I do it myself along with all my other cars. It's very straight forward on the turbo. Its a good DIY. I'm actually getting ready to do my oil change for the year.
