			I asked the local Porsche dealership for the costs of a service on my SC (only valves adjustment and oil change with self brought oil!) in 2020. They calculated roughly 1000€. Work effort only! Just for your orientation.

			$235/hr at the local dealership.  I needed them to dial in some stuff I couldn’t figure out recently and bit the bullet since the local Porsche indy is unreliable.
