Try International Motors in Rowlett. Jack used to be a Porsche mechanic at a Dealer. I think he is highly competent but you need to price as I can't comment on the RMS price as I don't know. He is in the yellow pages I haven't got his number.

I have called Dealer and they want 1,300. they are say 10 hrs. other shop 1,400-1,500. This seems high compared to what i have read, but I dont want to take it somewhere they don't know what they are doing. Let me know if you have any other idea's. International Motor Cars has to put me on a waiting until mid march. PLEASE HELP!!!

and porsche wont help with cost . It is out of warranty by 8 mths but not over on miles.

You might try Zims Autotechnik, 1804 Reliance Parkway, Bedford, TX 76021 817-267-445

They were recommended to me for a pre-purchase inspection by a local (Houston) Porsche independent and seemed pretty nice on the phone. I did not buy the car I was looking at there, so I have not used them.

I recently had my motor replaced at Boardwalk Porsche because of the RMS leak. They quoted me at $1100 but when they measured the crank they found a bit of play so they said my motor was heading for the grave. I had no warranty but they covered 75% so I paid about $2800 for a fresh crate motor from Porsche and I now have a 2 year warranty on the labor and motor. I also had them install a Stillen light weight flywheel(13lbs) and the car feels so much more responsive! Talk to Sid in service and tell her Anthony from HDA Autosports sent you, she will work with you on the price, just bargain. I have my own shop and try to work on most of my own cars or have my mechanic look at it but I was very pleased with the work and respect I got from Boardwalk and to top it all off they gave me a 06 Boxster for a loaner. Good luck with your car.
