Default 3 year, 10K mile Spyder Service?

What should I expect on a 3 year, 10K mile Spyder service visit besides Oil/Filter? Anything else?

Thanks guys.
We have a new Porsche Dealer in Fresno. What prices are you guys paying? I want to see if they try and inflate stuff as the new, and only dealer locally.
I can easily do all that stuff on my lift at home, but I want them to check a few other items out for warranty work.

At least do you own cabin charcoal filter (about $67) and engine air filter (about $35). They will be charging north of $150/hour.

Did they replace cabin and air filter?

That looks like a great price.

Air filter at 10k miles seems premature, is that what the manual is calling out?

I did my brake fluid flush at 2 years, I can check my records and let you know what I paid.

It is more like a 20K service, but I usually 1/2 stuff. Plus it has been 3 years for the OP. If the car has been stored (for winters) it is a good idea to look into that area more often to see if anyone has been trying to build a home (OK more meant for the cabin than engine filter but same principle).

This.

Just did it on my 5000 mile 2012 (2011 build date). Thankfully, no "more" things were found
