Any big maintenance projects for a 2007 with 85K?
 

hi I have a 2007 base with about 85000 miles, and I plan to stick with it. When I garage it for the winter, are there any big maintenance projects that I should consider at this point? I notice that bumps in the road seem to feel rougher than they used to. When are shocks and struts meant to be replaced ? And can they be ordered online? I have a mechanic who will install any parts I order.
Thanks!

Make sure you have a battery tender attached so the battery always is fully charged and change the oil before putting the car in storage. To prevent flat spots roll the car a bit every few weeks.

Pelican Parts, the sponsor of this forum, has most parts you will needs, including the suspension parts you asked about. They have a staff that you can call that will help ensure you get everything you need and the correct parts for you car and model.

Refer to your Service Manual for those required interval maintenance, should give you a good idea of what and when it needs to be done. Your mechanic should also perform a visual inspection of your car. At that stage he should be in a better position to let you know what maintenance your car require, if any.

Pelican Parts is a perfect choice for Genuine Porsche Parts. Good and knowledgeable ppl there to help

Based on your comments, I would suspect that you should start gathering parts to
to refresh the suspension, (4) link control arms, (4) control (coffin) arms, (4) dampers, (2) strut mounts for the front and perhaps the rear ones too (depending on condition).

It adds up very quickly.. :(

But the way your car will handle afterwards?... Priceless :)
