yes and you probably do a good service if not better than main dealer. But when it comes to resale those stamps more often than not help. whether thats right or wrong. Phil

Not sure i agree with that Phil. Maybe to the Uneducated in the world of motoring. But lets face it, biggest % of porsche owners do have a bit of savvy.
I could not care less about main dealer stamps, when i know from experience that some Indy's do a more competent job, as you stated. I'd just be more concerned that the car has been serviced as it should have and when it should have.

I would stay with OPC at 4 years old .. more likely to get goodwill from Porsche is something goes badly wrong, like IMS failure for example.

Even if they give you 50% though, it might cost 50% more!
