What's in a 20,000 mile service ?

Im just curios about what actually happens during a Taycan 20,000 mile service which will occur soon to my car ? My previous Macan obviously was petrol engine focused, what exactly gets serviced ??? cheers

According to my local dealer and the email I received after a booking, its this!

I actually have my Taycan at the dealer for the first service and just got the quote for the work.
A few things are naturally car specific like #7, #10, #12.

The warranty items are the heater recall and a PCM upgrade.

That was being polite. Borderline criminal.

And probably a necessary pain to get a Porsche Approved warranty extension.

I was just thinking that myself ! I get the brake fluid, but some of the other items, I dont get at all

Afraid so, yeah. They at least called and asked : "Is there anything in that list you don't want us to do?". Apart from the wipers and key battery I believe the other others are all on the list for 1st service, as far as I've read in these forums.... still insane for the work it is but it's the "approved" stamp indeed....

I’m skipping 20k mile service. Is that bad?

Let's be honest here - A Porsche tax, plain and simple. My previous Taycan's 20k service cost over $1200 and it is not worth it. However, if your car develops a problem related to the service list item and you do not do it, you will be in world of hurt.

Most important thing is brake fluid flush , I got quoted 1k for 20k mile, 590 from my INDY, it’s a ridiculous markup to help Porsche pay overhead

What’s the damage underneath? Unless you drove over something carelessly, don’t see how that could be possible.
What’s with line item #1? Seems like they should either give the all-in price, OR itemized breakout. They got you for both.

This is what I got for my 30,000km (1.5 year old car) service in Porsche Centre Dublin. I was happy with the cost. A technician did mention to me that they are seeing a lot of owners hit the 2 year mark (before hitting 30,000 km) and not come in for service.

I actually went to Halfords this afternoon thinking that I would do this myself, They didn't have Taycan wipers in stock, the guy did say that there are ones that would be close , but I dont want Porsche to pull me up on a sundry item like that
