Panamera/Cayenne V8 Rebuild

[uknowstu]

If anyone is looking for someone to rebuild their Panamera or Cayenne V8, I have done this and know all the ins and outs. I can give you some direction, or for a price, I will do the work for you.

Cool. Pricing for your services would be helpful.

Hey sorry for the delayed response. Parts are cost plus 10% just for my time to ensure the right parts are installed, and labor is $100 per hour. I can do a full drop, tear down, rebuild, and install in about 30 hours. I know the book says 19 hours, but that must be at the factory with all the parts and everything cooperating perfectly. Realistically, a 19 hour job would be worth the $250 or $300 per hour the dealer would charge.
Thanks!
Stu

Location? Warranty on work?

[uknowstu]

Centrally located for equal access to East and West Coast, in Wichita, KS.
Warranty is 12 months or 12,000 miles on parts and labor.

Lets see here

$100/hr x30 = $3000 for a non credited backyard mechanic to do the work in Kansas + parts

Or

$150/hr x19 = $2850 for a reputable shop that’s local and has all the tools needed + parts.

This seems like a Craigslist.

Just trying to help.
No need to attack me, you can spend your money anywhere you want. If you have an engine failure on this type of engine, shoot me a note and I will be glad to help. Heck, anyone with a Crescent toolset can do what I did, but few have the stones to do it!

Other than you car, have you done other Cayenne's? Thank you.
