Oil change

Hi, My wife’s Macan info screen is reporting Oil Change now. Called local PC to book in. Advised the oil change cost £400 plus. This seems a bit steep. My local Porsche Specialist charges £130. The car has covered 25,000 miles and was serviced by the supplying PC a year ago. Next service indicated during 2023. Am I missing something or is the quoted PC price normal? Your comments and experiences are welcome.
 
I've just had an interim oil change on my 2020 Macan GTS. It cost £80 including filter and 'O' ring. I purchased 10 litres of Mobile 1 oil online for just under £90. You don't say which model you have, but if it's petrol fuelled and has a particulate filter, you'll need Porsche C30 or C40 grade (green label).

We purchased the paper filter from our nearest PC (at £27 retail! [&:]) under the mistaken impression it would carry a Porsche marking to comply with warranty. Turned out it just had VW markings! :rolleyes:

Regards,

Thanks Clive. Your message confirms my sense the quoted PC price for engine oil change is unreasonable. I am of an age requiring professional help so will use my local Porsche Specialist. My wife’s car is 2019 2litre petrol Macan which is ideal. When I feel the need for speed I wake up my Cayman 981. regards, Richard.
