Just wondering how others react to service cost. My Macan SD is coming up for two years old and is shortly due for its first service. I have been quoted by a Scottish main agent, all prices including VAT :-
Intermediate service: £430.
Brake fluid change: £95.
Air conditioning service: £200
Total £725.00. The car has done 17000 miles. Keeping in mind the service is every two years only, I guess the cost is not too bad although slightly more than I was expecting. How does that cost compare with others on this forum?

I'd say that you were lucky not to need an oil change at 10k miles, as I 'needed' recently after only 7 months, as have at least a couple of Macaneers on here.
I'll have to wait and see if I'll still need the complete interim (£430) at 20k miles, plus potentially brake fluid change, and air con service...

I agree ... never needed one on my BMW in 5 years... is this a part of the service plan? , its an eye opener for me as a potential future owner.

The cost is in line what we paid down South.
I would only have the interim service done and brake fluid changed (that needs to be done every two years on any car really).
As others have said the aircon re-charge is not necessary and even if you did want it done, it is too over priced at OPC.
So that brings us down to £525 in total.

Maybe, but I'm wondering if it's a new ploy by Porsche to earn a few more £££s.
Not too worried really, as many on here seem to say that an oil change after the first 10k miles is probably quite a good idea anyway...

I'm quite a fan of "frequent oil changes" but just a pity it costs so much with Porsche.
I used to work with BP and was able to buy oil at 30p ............for a gallon
