Default New Member Looking For Service

I'm a new member and a new owner of an 87 928 S4. Wondering if there are any service gurus in the Milwaukee, WI area other than the usual suspect dealers in the area. I'm not really a "wrencher" and have some items that I would like to get fixed up.

The 928 Owners Club members in WI might be of help.

I have my 89 951 Turbo S stored in Kenosha, WI at an excellent mechanic's warehouse. He works on the rare Italian cars, as well as Porsches - and his rates are reasonable.

If interested, PM me and I can send you his contact info.

How about an introduction with pics of your car - if you ever come back, that is.

Never, ever take your 928 to a Porsche dealer. It will come out worse than it goes in.

Welcome, enjoy it here. Ask any questions you may have, or try search.

Thanks for the welcomes, folks! Been a bit busy trying diagnose issues. She took a little turn for the worse and now has problems starting with severe idle searching when running (need to keep the gas pedal down a bit and the car idles with about a 1000 rpm swing. It ran funky at start up but great once it was warmed up, before... Hacker Pschorr, I saw your PM but was not able to respond.

A word to the wise, Hacker, will have ya distracted by his goat, while he's parting out you're ride.









Just yanking your chain, Hacker is one of the best people on this forum, and in real life too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pay close attention to what he tells ya, you'll never go wrong!

Welcome to the big pond!
