Factory-Interval Service by a Gold Meister
Porsche Scheduled Maintenance in Stratford, CT
Porsche scheduled maintenance follows factory-defined intervals specific to each model, engine, and model year. From minor services (oil, filters, inspection) to major services (spark plugs, brake fluid, transmission fluid, air filters), we perform every item on Porsche's maintenance schedule using OEM parts and factory procedures — and stamp your service book.

Why This Matters on a Porsche
Porsche maintenance schedules vary significantly by model and generation. A 997.1 911 has different intervals than a 992, and a Cayenne V8 Turbo has different requirements than a Macan 4-cylinder. We know every interval, every specification, and every model-specific quirk. More importantly, we know what to inspect beyond the scheduled items — the common failure points that Porsche's official schedule doesn't cover but experience teaches you to check.

Our Equipment
PIWIS III Diagnostic System
Porsche's factory diagnostic tool. We use it for service resets, fault code scanning, adaptation values, and module programming — the same system used in every Porsche dealer worldwide.
OEM Parts & Fluids
Genuine Porsche parts and Mobil 1 factory-fill oils. We do not substitute with aftermarket alternatives on scheduled maintenance — your car receives exactly what Porsche specifies.
Dealer vs. Independent Specialist
A Porsche dealer charges $600-$900 for a minor service and $1,200-$2,500+ for a major service. We provide identical service — same parts, same procedures, same PIWIS reset — for 30-50% less. We also stamp your service book, maintaining your warranty compliance and resale documentation. The only difference is you'll talk directly to the technician working on your car.
More Than Just a Service Visit
Every scheduled maintenance includes a comprehensive multi-point inspection that goes beyond the factory checklist. We inspect underneath the car on a lift, check for fluid leaks, measure brake pad and rotor thickness, inspect suspension components, check tire condition and tread depth, and test all lights and electronics. You receive a written report with photos of any concerns.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is included in a Porsche minor service?
- A minor service includes oil and filter change, PIWIS service reset, multi-point inspection, fluid level checks, tire pressure adjustment, and a visual inspection of brakes, suspension, and underbody. It's the standard interval service performed every 10,000 miles or 12 months.
- What is included in a Porsche major service?
- A major service includes everything in a minor service plus: spark plug replacement, cabin and engine air filters, brake fluid flush, and additional inspections of drive belts, coolant condition, and transmission fluid level. Specific items vary by model and mileage.
- Do you stamp the Porsche service book?
- Yes. We stamp your physical service book and can update your digital service record. Independent specialist service does not void your Porsche warranty as long as OEM-equivalent parts and factory procedures are used — which is exactly what we do.
- How much does Porsche scheduled maintenance cost?
- Minor service (oil, filter, inspection): $350-$500 depending on model. Major service (plugs, fluids, filters): $800-$1,800 depending on model and items due. We provide a detailed estimate based on your model, mileage, and service history before any work begins.
- Will independent service void my Porsche warranty?
- No. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, manufacturers cannot require dealer-only service to maintain warranty coverage. As long as the service is performed to factory specifications with OEM or OEM-equivalent parts — which we guarantee — your warranty remains intact.
