My local dealership just charged me $740 for an oil service for my 991.2 GT3. The service advisor even said that 991.2 GT# manufactured post May of 2018 would cost $100 more???
Filter and seal rings - $125
Oil - $95
Labor - $495
Hazardous waste - $6
Tax - $20
Seems a bit of a gouge on the labor and the parts. I found filter and seal rings for about $46 online.
Appreciate your feedback to help me decide whether I should find a different service center. Thanks

What dealership is this? That is extremely high compared to oil changes I've had in the bay area for a 991.2 GT3.

For the last year of my engine warranty I was thinking about getting my dealer to do it, but they sure make it hard to justify with that price. I changed my own coils out a while back. Checked the price at my local dealer, and they quoted $146 a coil. I checked at FCP it was $42. I realize they have overhead, but I just can't justify paying that much.

This was Porsche Stevens Creek

You're getting fleeced. Check elsewhere.

That's a ridiculous markup. At $42, I'm guessing that FCP does make a small profit over their cost. I wouldn't be surprised if Porsche dealerships' cost would be lower than FCP's.

Suncoast Porsche sells the oil filter kit for $80. Porsche Stevens Creek charged $125.

Thanks

Go to an Indy with a good rep for less and keep receipts for warranty work if needed down the road.

Seems expensive I was quoted $450 or so at Porsche Marin

That’s a rip-off. This is worth learning to DIY if you’re inclined at all. Not difficult and quite satisfying.

better buy some ramps & basic tools, you will save money DIY.
plenty of information and videos on how to do oil change.

Just had a dealer [Porsche San Diego] do my 10K mile service. Oil and Filter, Plugs, Air filters and drive belt in order to keep my CPO warranty valid with no questions.
Total cost was $3700 for 9 hours labor and parts. Air Filters were $900 for the pair. 2019 GT3RS.

These California dealers are bending you guys over on service.

Thanks for the all the feedback. I'll stay away from Porsche Stevens Creek going forward.

If you randomly call that same dealership I bet you get a lower price. I've had to tell dealers they were out of line and they quickly dropped their pricing. I get a more competitive price but end up not going back as I don't like playing those games.
