A family member used to work for OPC Leeds and mentioned they are good blokes. Another Porsche Indy worth trying is RPM near Knaresbro

A MASSIVE seconded for Strasse here.

I think you will also find they are highly rated by a few of the Ferrari and Lambo guys too but they are Porsche specialists first and foremost. Dave Forrest is your man.

JCT tried to sort my steering out, still out by 1.5 degrees.

Not very happy and I can not be bothered to take her back a third time.

What are they trying to sort out? Steering wheel not straight?

How did you guess?

That is spooky!

I wouldn't touch OPC, not least for the high costs.

When I had my 911 it always went to Strasse. Great service.

Try 9M in Warrington, a bit of a trek for us Yorkshire guys, but well worth it. Just had my GT3 alligned there, spot on!!!!

Strasse come highly recomended by all the guys that I know who've had Porsche's

its common they get the steering wheel out of alignment because 1/2 the time they dont get it straight before they start adjusting things..... and they usually straighten it by moving the track rod ends evenly either way to get it straight...

don't know if you'd be better off with a brick wall than opc leeds....

I have just picked my 996 C4S up from Porschtek in Leeds. They did a fantastic job, they certainly know there stuff, the place is really nice, price was very reasonable. After all my bad experiences with other places in Leeds, Porschtek have restored my faith in my Porsche, it drives like a new car again. Highly recommend giving them a try, they have my business from now on. My brother is taking his 996 Turbo in for a new clutch and a service next Monday, I will let you know how he goes on.

I would add a thumbs up for Nick and Andy at RPM Knaresborough. You can then pop next door and have a quick letch at Gmund Cars.

Er, prefer not to, RLR it is then.

Another one for Strasse here !! ask for Charlie great guy !

OPC Leeds charged me £400 for 1 tyre !! and took them 4 times to fix a blown turbo, then a week later the other went. And the way they went about fixing it is a joke and that bad i wont post on here.
