Newbie needing advice
Hello all,
Just wanted to take a few seconds to introduce myself to all rennlist members. I been lurking for a 993 TT for the past year and finally pulled trigger and picked up 1997 993 TT from a Rennlist member in NM over the weekend. What a nice long 1100 fun miles drive back to CA. She is black w/gray int.
I am in east bay area 10 miles from bay bridge. Anyone in here can recommend a good shop to have my oil change done?
Thanks

Congrats. Great job taking the road trip to become one with the Turbo. Pics, please!
I think you bought the Turbo we talked about here:

Oakton, what oil are you going to use? May I suggest Mobil One V-Twin 20W50. Read here:

I haven't had any problems at Pacific Power Motorsports in Concord and Scargo in San Rafael. I used to do it myself, but just had the defective oil filter thing happen, so I may have done my last one. I'm sure Valhalla in Lafayette could handle it as well.

I can recommend a GREAT shop: FD Motorsports. They are not too far from you (but not too close either), but well worth any drive. It would be smart to let them give the car a good look-over while they change the oil. They are sponsors of this site. Look them up... Mark & Darin. Really good guys.
