Question Los Angeles Area 997.2 PDK Service

Hi,

I just got a new to me Carrera S with PDK. Porsche recommends a clutch fluid and gearbox fluid change at 6 Years which is here. I just bought a Fidelity Warrantee which is a factor in needing the service despite the low (27K) miles.

The Dealership offered to take $ 1250 for this service and I'm thinking an Indi can do it for less than half....

Problem is, very few Indi's have the PWIS and any prior experience.

Can anyone recommend me to a shop that has the experience? I live in the Southbay area.


Many Thanks,


FBS

I would not trust an Indy for pdk related service, especially for the price you mentioned. If anything happens to your pdk in the future, you always have the authorized service on your side. Just my opinion, and not to say that there are no competent indies in LA

Have you tried GMG in costa mesa? I don't know if they can do it, but might be worth giving them a call.
