1999 Porsche Boxster

Question: How much should a 60k service cost?

Question

Visitor, Peachtree City, GA, January 13, 2011, 12:22

I have owned my Boxter for about a year now and absolutely love it. I have a local mechanic who is great but was thinking I should see a Certified Porsche Dealer for my 60k service. Anyone with thoughts on this and ideas on what I should expect to pay for a scheduled service?

    There is nothing in the 60K miles service that a good mechanic could not do - beside one thing. A diagnostic readout is part of the service, so if they don't have a Porsche diagnostic computer they won't be able to do it, however if there is no warning lights on - Check Engine Light, ABS....- you won't really need the readout.
    If you post an e-mail I can send you the whole list of the service.

    These should be replaced in your 60K service. Approx 4.5 hours of labor + cost of parts. You may be charged a bit more if they are going to use the diagnostic software. I just gave you hours for replacement of the parts below. Hope this helps!
