I think I only paid $150 for that report. Money well spent.

I agree with this. A mechanic blew up the engine on my 986 because of coolant problems. Don't just take it to anyone that claims they know Porsche, take it to the real dealer and just get it fixed the right way.
And on that 986 with the blown engine, local Porsche specialist wanted over $7,000 for a used engine installed so I ended up just letting the car sit for years while I paid it off and sold it for $3,000 with the blown engine and bought the 987. I never did get compensated by that mechanic, they refused to give me their insurance information and it wasn't worth attorneys to get $7,000. All he got was a bad Yelp review
