4 year/40,000 mile service

I find it unusual that a car would go in for a service and not have engine oil changed, is this a normal with Porsche? All my other cars it's a standard part of the service. Is there then a strong possibility the car has to go back in in say 6 months for an oil change?

I had it done in March as I have it done every 10,000, I thought I would have done 10k by the time the service was due in Oct. Then lockdown kicked in And I’ve only done 3k miles since the oil change in March.

Ah okay I understand.
We only do about 4,000 in each car so the 2 year service interval would always have an oil change for me.

Ive been quoted about £800 for the 4 year at OPC Brooklands. It's going in in December.

If you have completed 40k miles and they are including transmission oil change and second brake fluid change that’s a good OPC price. Although I use the term “good” loosely

Just 29,000 miles currently. No mention of those changes when they quoted me.

That’s expensive! I am guessing they are all attached and have a smaller captive market. Next closest I guess Edinburgh and Kendal, although a long way to haul for a service. The prices quoted by TIR and CE are similar to my price paid, albeit a year past since then. Clear that some are looking to regain the losses and costs incurred this year.

My GTS is due the 4 year service in January . I have a breakdown from my local OPC totalling £764.39 which includes brake fluid (the car is on 26,800 miles)

Edinburgh and Glasgow are both Sytner dealerships so I guess will be same price.
