Default Service Recommendations

Hi All,

I have a recently purchased 2011 Panamera Turbo with 43000 miles, car is in excellent condition. I have read through most of the threads on this but still have some concerns.

I know that the oil/filter were recently changed along with both the air filter and the cabin air filter. However, I don't know when, or if, the PDK, brake fluid, coolant, final drives were/or have been serviced.

Also have and will change the spark plugs.

I am considering doing all of them, even though it is low mileage, it is a 12 year old car, just so that I have a baseline to go by. What are your thoughts or recommendations?

Do the PDK change, you’re close enough to the 12 yr mark so do both of them.
This is for 2014, but should still be good for yours

It's not just the mileage, the flyuds are potentially q0 years old. Sounds like you have the right idea. Change them all. You can then enjoy the car and have a baseline for future services.

Hello Iticip-
Thinking about this myself
If you don't mind:
-how many miles on your turbo? I'm @ 93
-did you just change the fluid or fluid and pan? what fluid did you decide to use?
-diy, indy or dealer ? would you share approx cost?

105 and at the dealer. It was ~800. They also recommended doing the transfer case and differential, but I’ll do that in January because it was $1800 and I’m 23 who gets paid on an annual basis.
