Re: Fixed Price Servicing

😉😉😂 Now, if I were a betting man, I’d say they’ll be “testing” the oil (not sure how?) and recommending a precautionary change....!! (call me an old cynic if you wish😊...) Now that would be interesting, especially when I ask for a print out of the results to send with an oil sample for analysis by ...

Re: Fixed Price Servicing

^^ If you strike up a good relationship you’ll be fine👍 But here’s an awkward question for the service receptionist; what will they charge for your minor service in December when the car reaches its’ 2nd birthday? They will need to subtract the cost of the oil change surely.....!😉 I asked this very...

Re: Fixed Price Servicing

Also worth pointing out that a 12 month oil change is a personal option and not part of the recommended schedule (unless the car us asking for it in-which case it becomes a minor service) That's interesting, my Macan is telling me an oil change is due in March and the 20,000 miles minor service in ...

Re: Fixed Price Servicing

I tried the you'll push me to purchase my next Porsche elsewhere card but they weren't interested even the receptionist seemed uninterested unlike Sheffield and Leicester. I recon my Porsche days are numbered when a dealer behaves like this.

Fixed Price Servicing

I purchased my 68 plate Base Macan from Porsche Centre Nottingham last April and love it, when I purchased it I was informed an oil change is £295 which is high but expected of a Porsche dealer and therefore acceptable. I phoned Nottingham today to book it in to be informed the price is £350, there'...

Re: Brake caliper mismatch

Must be a “feature “ on 2.0 Macan, mine is the same. Like you RickZ I have only just noticed after nearly 4 months!!! I must agree that for the cost of the car they should get them to match. Whilst on the subject of 2.0 Macan, does your oil temp take ages to warm up relative to the water temperatur...

Re: Brake caliper mismatch

Bet you'd see it different if the front and back wheels on your Macan were different shades. The fact is we pay a fortune for these cars and it's not rocket science to fit calipers of matching colours. Nice wheels with mismatched calipers showing through. If Porsche get it right on some Macans why n...
