60,000 Mile Service & "RE-certification"?

[joshua6060]

Hi Everyone,

I purchased my 01 Boxster with 42,000 miles on it in November of 2005, since then I have driven it A LOT, I am now at 58,500 miles, so I have been eyeing my 60,000 mile service....does anyone have a wild guess as to how much the service might run? In addition to this, I have sinced moved to a different city and the dealership that I purchased the car from just called me to inform me that when I purchased my vehicle, that some part of the certification process was not properly completed, and since I don't live in Shreveport, LA anymore, I could bring the car into any Porsche dealership (New Orleans) and have THEM contact the dealership that sold me the vehicle and they will "re-certify" my vehicle..... Any thoughts or experiences or advice or similar experiences from any of you guys?

Did you buy this car as a CPO car from Porsche??

My 30K service was $850 so that's the last time the dealer saw it. 60K was a $150 DIY.

My 30k was $777. 30k and 60k are the same except 60k also includes replacing the polyrib belt.

Hope this helps...

Yes it was a CPO from a Porsche Dealership - Moffitt in Shreveport, LA

Everything except the fuel filter are an EASY DIY. You could buy all the parts for around $100 and pay a independent shop to change your fuel filter(car has to be completely off the ground). The fuel filter change should be $80-100 in labor.
