Cayenne GTS Gen 2 - service intervals?

[dasherdiablo1]

Can someone tell me what the service intervals are on a Cayenne GTS gen 2 car are? Am I right in assuming 2yrs or 20k miles - ie whichever come soonest? Or is it purely on what the car tells you?

Thanks in advance

No specifics. But interestingly enough this subject of Cayenne servicing came up today when I dropped the keys off to my 996 Turbo for servicing.

Since I have a high miles Boxster (275K miles) the SM and techs like to bring me reports about high miles Porsches.

So, I was pointed to a Cayenne (not a base model but I do not recall the specific model) with 279K miles on it. I do not know the year. I was told it was in good shape. It was in for a bad headlight, smog check, and something else. The owner takes good care of the car getting regularly serviced. Of course he drives it, a lot. It is something of a company car.

By way of comparison I was told of another Cayenne (again I do not recall the year if I was even told the year) that was essentially a stinking pile of you know what at around 60K miles. The owner I'm told doesn't believe in services and the vehicle has not been properly serviced at all.

Oh well I called the OPC it was supposed to be serviced by and they have no history available. Also as it has covered 23k miles since its last service the warranty is void as it is 20k miles max or two years whichever comes soonest.

What made you leave it until 23k?

It wasn't me - it was a car I was looking at buying! The chap is selling it on here with warranty when in fact it is a lie as it is void.
