Essential Porsche Preventative Services
Regular inspections and maintenance safeguard performance and prevent mechanical failures. Each service protects vital systems and enhances longevity.
Oil Change
Regular oil changes keep the engine running smoothly by reducing friction and minimizing wear on vital components. Clean oil preserves lubrication, prevents overheating, and ensures optimal performance.
- Removes dirt and contaminants, preserving engine lubrication.
- Prevents premature wear and overheating.
- Recommended every 5,000 to 10,000 miles, depending on your Porsche model and driving conditions.
Tire Inspection & Rotation
Tires are critical in stability, handling, and fuel efficiency. Regular inspections identify uneven wear, proper inflation levels, and potential damage that could compromise performance. Rotating tires at recommended intervals promotes even tread wear, extends tire lifespan, and improves grip.
- Identifies tread depth, pressure inconsistencies, and sidewall damage.
- Ensures optimal contact with the road for precise handling.
- Rotation is recommended every 5,000 to 7,500 miles to distribute wear evenly.
Brake System Inspection
Brakes ensure controlled stopping power and play a key role in safety. Routine inspections detect worn brake pads, thinning rotors, and potential fluid leaks that may affect braking efficiency. Addressing these issues early prevents costly repairs and ensures reliable stopping power.
- Evaluating brake pad thickness, rotor condition, and fluid levels.
- Detects wear that can lead to diminished braking performance.
- Recommended at least twice a year or whenever braking feels inconsistent.
Fluids Check and Replenishment
Brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid keep essential systems functioning efficiently. Checking and replenishing fluids prevents overheating, mechanical failure, and costly repairs.
- Ensures proper brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid levels.

- Inspection should occur before seasonal changes to maintain comfort and efficiency.
Battery Inspection
A strong battery provides reliable starts and supports electronic systems. Routine inspections prevent unexpected failures and electrical malfunctions.
- Identifies corrosion, low voltage, or faulty connections.
- Prevents unexpected failures and ensures reliable starts.
- Testing is recommended every six months, with replacement typically needed every three to five years.
Additional Recommended Services
Wheel Alignment
Proper alignment keeps steering precise, prevents premature tire wear, and ensures smooth handling. An alignment may be necessary if the vehicle pulls to one side or the tires wear unevenly.
- Keeps the steering precise and reduces uneven tire wear.
- Recommended annually or if pulling, vibration, or uneven tire wear occurs.
Spark Plug Replacement
Functional spark plugs ensure consistent ignition, efficient fuel combustion, and smooth acceleration. Worn plugs reduce performance and fuel economy.
- Maintains fuel efficiency and smooth acceleration.
- Typically required every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, depending on the engine.
Belt & Hose Inspection
