In Long Island I was told it would run about $ 1,500.00. After going through a $ 800 dollar clutch job I thought it was a bit much. Roslyn Motors. I will call the other dealers for the pricing of said maintenance. Could I have misunderstood the currency in which the service was being quoted? $ 1,500 pesos seem about right.

You should be able to get a 30K done at a dealer for $1300 or so, and for $600-$800 at a Porsche specialist. Just ballpark figures.

Just paid $400 at the local dealer last week on my 2002 base model.

Beyond my $400, I did choose to get the brake fluid flushed as they suggested (and MikeFocke lists above).

All in all, I walked out of there quite happy and with little damage to the wallet.

Thanks for all the great info, Now I'll be more educated when I take to the Stealer and get a few rates.

The dealer was actually in Delaware near my office. Winner Porsche of Newark, DE. Very reasonable people and the main service guy is an active member of the local PCA chapter.

I had also called at 4:45 pm on a Friday and they squeezed me in that next Monday, saying "Well, 30k service on an 02 isn't that hard".
