take anything a dealer says with a grain of salt...

i was told i needed new cooling hoses and the brakes were gone and wouldn't pass inspection.

took it to an independent, he said there was some coolant on a hose, but the hose was fine. he looked at my radiator cap and said "ah, that's your problem. you've got the old one. go get the new one." he also said brakes were fine.

passed inspection no problem and the mechanic doing the inspection ( vw dealer ) said the car looked to be in good shape, just needed the headlight beams adjusted. ( which the porsche dealer didn't even notice ).
