Any one know of any reliable mechanics near the Pasadena, Ca area? My 99 is approaching 60,000 miles and I want to hopefuly find someone other that my local Porsche dealer- where I wil be charged approx 1500.00. I've already tried searching old post but found nothing. Thanks for your responses.

60k service is usually around $600-700 at dealers. Try calling a few dealers to compare prices.

You can also do it yourself. Renntech.org has step by step how-to. It'll take about 4 hrs. Basic tool kit from Costco ($50), filters, plugs, oils ($170-200), car ramps ($25) is all you need.

60K at porsche dealers..is NOT 700-800 but around 1500! I used an independent in Huntington Beach and they charged me 800.

Newport beach porsche charge almost 1800 or something in that area.

Stay away from newport auto. bought my car there and will never go back. horrible dealer Try pacific porsche and ask for alberto.

isn't it strange though that a huge dealer in luxury cars (porsches, bentley, audi) has such a bad reputation?? You should expect them to be excelent, especially since they charge $129 peer hour plus tax!

I recently had my 60K done for $1100 at my dealer. That included the fuel filter. They originally wanted $1450 but I got a couple of independent quotes and they matched it.
