Maintenance supplies
From the dealer.
Since the car is still under warranty and I prefer to do everything myself, they have a record of what I bought and when. After the PCA 10% discount the prices are not that far off online places. And no waiting on shipping.
For my other cars, Rockauto.com and Autopartsway.ca and sometimes Amazon.ca

FCP Euro is great and lifetime warranty...yes, even on oil. Only trouble is they are in US so shipping returns back isn’t always practical, particularly fluids that PO considers Dangerous Goods.
I bought my oils from either Canadian Tire when on sale or recently through GermanParts.ca (their Instagram often publishes discount codes.) I don't buy oil from the dealership because it is really expensive.
Consumable maintenance parts - Often the dealer. After factoring USD/CAD conversion, shipping/taxes/duties (luck of the draw) going to the Porsche dealer with my PCA discount more than makes up for the convenience. RockAuto.com often has good prices and selection.

I typically buy from RockAuto. A couple weeks ago I was looking for Macan PDK fluid and filters. Found StritctlyEuropeanMotors.com online. They sell OEM VW/Audi DSG fluid (for Macan) and Febi filter for very reasonable prices. They also sell Motul and LiquiMoly (I went OE). Shipping was fast and very reasonably priced (if you were in GTA I presume you could pickup). I've never heard of them before but wanted to pass on my positive experience. They appear to be for VW / Audi, but they had the parts I needed at a huge discount from the dealer (of course the Macan shares a lot with Audi).
mostly from rock auto....
pro tip.... add some windshield wipers from the same warehouse to your order.... they have the best prices on wipers anywhere....they have beam style wipers for under $5 sometimes

Ive been finding rock auto delivery charges and delivery times getting crazy. I am doing more ordering from partsavatar these days which is Canadian and free shipping over 75.00
i ordered a boost valve from rock auto on the 25th of Oct and it shows delivery scheduled for 4th of November, used t get it in two days or so.
Everyone is getting hit hard with shipping with fuel prices these days. Have to keep a close eye on that when ordering.

Oil filter: at the dealer even though I am off warranty.
Oil: at Walmart in the US where it is cheap 24/7/365...I don't have to wait for sales.
Engine lid struts: FCP Euro.
For the older P car: Sunset, Pelican.
