Hi,
Can anyone recommend a good and repetable independent Porshe specialist for service and repairs in Sheffield or surrounding areas please.
I am new to Porshe and recently purchased a 2007 Boxster 987 3.4S with only 38000 miles on but had it parked up in garage for 2 months due to an operation which has stopped me from driving.
When I have come to start it and pull out of garage there is a small patch of oil on the floor and I can see a wet area on underside of engine which looks like it could be possibly coming from below RMS area...
It had just had a major service at Strasse Porshe in Leeds prior to me buying it and they had not reported any oil leak then.
I've only covered 500 miles since that service then parked it up on trickle charger so would like to get this checked out.
Any advice would me very much appreciated.
Cheers
Mick

I'd be tempted to take it back to Strasse, they may even sort it under goodwill which will only help their reputation...

Thank you for the reply.
The service was sorted by previous owner not me.
It has a corroded left exhaust muffler which wasnt picked up on service report and when I rang them to question this, they wasnt helpful with an explanation so after 500 miles I cannot see them wanting to sort this as the service was back in April even though it cost £1250.00!
It's also further than I want to travel with me being in Sheffield and them in North Leeds.

Revolution Porsche in Batley near Leeds. About 25 miles away but by far the best indie Porsche centre for miles around. Ask for Russ, he's the co owner. Their customer service is as good as it gets.
Telephone number is 0113 468 6020
