Post Wiring harness replacement - other work I should get done

Having my wiring harness replaced in two weeks time, (by my OPC) what does the replacement involve?

Given my car has 70K miles on the clock is there other work that I should get done when the wiring harness is being done especially since Porsche are paying for 6hours of labour!!

Does the engine come out for a harness change? If so I should get the clutch done.

TIA

No the engine does not come out. I had my belts changed. I wouldn't replace your clutch unless it is slipping under normal pressure.

Have them take a look at your secondary air injection diverter valve. They are prone to corrosion.

charge you for installing new belts?
