Anal. Asking for trouble? Everyone on this forum owns a Porsche. I think that means we're all a bit anal. Bring up type of oil used. How many pages do those threads run?
His mechanic does his best to make sure he does everything possible to give him the best service. Excessive, yes. Asking for trouble? At least his mechanic knows if the S hose is in good shape. I've read a few threads where the owner didn't know what condition his S hose was in or that he even had one till he lost oil as fast as BP did.
Considering many of the threads on this forum, where every fastener and screw have been sent out and re-plated, running 93 octane in a car designed for 89, which while safe, slows combustion more than is needed and probably lowers horsepower, race suspension on street only cars, etc.
It is not complicated and the only dangerous part is if the hose is already weak, in which case your mechanic sounds like the type to notice and recommend replacing it.
I think you found a good mechanic who cares about the cars he services.
I own a Porsche, I'm a bit anal, and I'm proud.
