I am a new Boxster owner and would appreciate advice. I live in Fort Collins, Co and there is a Porsche dealer, a well known independent primarily Porsche shop, and a very well respected independent shop called Metric Motors that services all types of autos. The Dealer and the independent Porsche shop charge for my 2004 Boxster S oil change 225$. Metric Motors charges 116$ for the same service. When questioned Metric indicated that they use Porsche parts, sleeve etc. and they never have a problem with this service. Should I trust them and save 110$ or go to the other providers? Please don’t recommend my doing it myself; for me that would be laughable! Advice?
