Porsche shops in Vancouver, BC

This forum has helped me so I would like to give back...

My car has been serviced by MCL for 95% of it's life, they are great, but expensive.

In search of a more affordable alternative I had Jakobs High Performance Porsche Specialists (North Vancouver) do my 96K service. When I had this AOS issue at 110,000km I had the car taken to them... there in began the nightmare diagnosis that lead to my posts on this site.

So, I gave Stuart at Wiessach a call, they had serviced my BMW 635 CSI many years before, and despite the fact they were backed up in service by almost two weeks, they took my car in on Friday pm and had it back to me Tuesday morning after a long weekend.


I hope this information is helpful to others in future!

Good news on the AOS (compared to an engine replacement) and thanks for following up to let us know how it turned out.
