I have searched the forums and cannot find an answer. I got quoted $489 for a tranny oil change on a 2001 996 with a manual transmission. Does anyone have a sense as to the cost at an indy?? I live in the NYC area, so i will add 10-15% for the rape factor!
Thanks!!

$489 is rape. Genuine Porsche oil=$40LX3=$120. It's a 10 minute job. Maybe more counting the time to adjust the hoist. Even cheaper to use other gear oil= Redline, Liqui Moly etc

In January of 2008 at the same local dealer I paid $69.44 for a 6-speed tranny fluid change in my 03 Turbo. $6.11/liter (4) for the fluid and $45 labor. This works out to 0.3 hours labor.
The low cost of the fluid I was told was due to the fact the dealership had some excess fluid left over from some warranty work and because I'm a good customer sold the fluid to me at a discount.

I have just paid $280 at my local porsche dealer to change the transmission oil with porsche oem fluid.
The car was in for a water pump replacement so I figured I'd skip that DIY

I had a quote of $179 from my Indy. Decided to buy the transmission fluid and do it myself. Ordered 1 gallon of "Mobil 1 75w90 Delvac" from BR Racing for $40 + shipping.
