Re: Benefits of keeping new car for more than 6 years!

That link takes you to a 0-40 oil which is definitely not the right one.
The link is only indicative of value pricing. Mobil's website suggests that 0W-40 is correct for a 981.

Are you saying this is now in Porsche's schedule of work to be carried out? If so, it shouldn't be appearing as a separate charge, as OPCs regularly do.

Re: First service add ons

My car's now had 3 services, at two different OPCs, and every time I've been told they need to check/clear the roof drains and "service" the aircon. Every time I've declined. At the last service, I also told them I didn't want them to put an overpriced litre of Mobil ! in the boot, and nor...
