Man 60k service is a lot of coin
Parts alone are costing $1,000
Wouldn't hurt so much if we didn't have a massive contractor bill for the renovations on the house. Oh well. |
oh i feel your pain brother

the perfect anti-body for the Porsche 993 60k mile service blue$ is to a look at a Ferrari's 15,000 mile service bill. :)

The Ferrari guys could only wish!
Anyway, look on the bright side. You will never have to do another 60K service again :bigbye: |
Sounds about right though. I need new spark plug cables too. Mighty mucho $$$. I have, however, discovered that parts from the specialty parts supplier run about 50% cheaper than from the P-car dealer (Bosch starter, air flow meter and O2 sensor).

However, if you know your mechanic is top-notch then - as we all know - you pay for quality and should (gladly?) pay for it. We've chosen not to buy/drive a Econo-box / Japanese roller-skate. There are consequences for having made this decision. What I will say is this: how many of us - after having had our cars serviced - and are driving them back home - have had either a big grin on our faces - or a big frown on our faces coz of the bill? Personally, just a few days ago (see other thread(s)), I blew nine thousand on my 30K 'elite' service and 'winter project(s)'. To me it was money well spent -- and 'the bill' was very quickly forgotten when I slipped her into third, driver's side window down, and hauled ass down the parkway. Gerry |
My 90k performed at 86k was around $1400.00 and is the same as a 60k.....$1500.00 or so is a lot cheaper than letting the car go without a 60k service and have a major $$$$ problem arise because of poor maintenance.
Good Luck, ZP44 |
What is the general consensus on the estimated hours of labor required to complete the 60k service? I'm up to 54k miles on my '98 cab, so I guess my car will be due sometime this coming fall or winter...
Thanks, - rick |
I've gotten two quotes on 60k service yet to be performed. The first from a dealer at $1600 and the second after thinking the first was too high came in at $1900.

Paid about $1800 for mine, (but I have a C4) so I understand. But, $15k for the same type of service on a F-car....whew.... I guess everything really is "relative."
