In Miami, the only place to take a Porsche, is the Collection in Coral Gables. If anyone is interested in the places not to go, I would be happy to provide the names, but I don't want to blast anyone in public. It may be that I was the only one to have problems with them.

I cannot tell you how happy I am that my check engine light is gone for good (I hope!)

James, you said you were new to the area, so how can you make such a blanket statement?
Just like in any region of the Country there are qualified and not-so-qualified Porsche Shops.
I happen to consider myself one of the former.
There are also a few more that I highly respect and a few that I would steer away from.
I'd be happy to consult (for free) with you if you have the desire.
I can also provide you with references.

Happy Boxstering,
Pedro
