The other day, my husband was in the middle of aThe 911 GT3 was being sent to the dealer for its one-year service.The GT3 was delivered last May, but he decided to take it in for inspection a little earlier because he had to run the circuit and change the oil at the end of the year.
I was able to borrow a 718 Cayman as a dolly while the GT3 was out for inspection.I will post my impressions of that test drive in a later article, as it looks like I was able to go shopping and my husband was able to drive a bit in Ashiari and other areas.
As for the one-year inspection of the GT3, I brought it to the dealer in the morning and it was completed in the evening. There seemed to be no particular problems. Good, good, good.
By the way.The mileage from delivery to the present is 7630 km.In the beginning, my husband used to use GT3 to commute to work.Note e-POWER NISMO Scame along, I almost never use GT3 for commuting anymore.
As for touring with the GT3, I went to Shikoku for break-in, then drove to Fuji Speedway and back, drove the Suzuka Circuit, and went touring in Wakayama, Awaji, Sanda, etc., and it took me about a year to reach this level of mileage.
So, the cost and details of this inspection are as follows.
12-month legal periodic inspection Basic labor charge
Engine oil change (6.4L)
SEALING RING
Oil filter change
Front wiper blades are in good condition and have not been replaced.
Remaining brake pads F:12.0mm R:12.0mm
Remaining tire groove F: 5.0mm R: 5.0mm
Total (including labor and parts): 87,683 yen
When it comes to GT3 inspections, "I wonder if the price would be as high as several hundred thousand yen at one time.I had thought that the "I" in "I" was a bit of an exaggeration, but it seems that this is the extent of the problem, especially if there are no problems.(Incidentally, the GT2, GT3, GT4, etc. are not included in Porsche Scheduled Maintenance, which is a flat-rate prepaid maintenance fee.)
And the thing that surprised my husband the most during this inspection was the PCCB(Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes)The husband said that this was the fact that the brake pads had not been reduced at all in the On this, her husband said, the
PCCB is not decreasing as much as people say it is.After about 7600 km, the dealer's maintenance man told me that theIt's in almost new condition, the disc is clean and totally fine.I did that.
I think this is great, even though I also drive on circuits in this GT3 and I brake hard when I drive briskly on winding roads.
In the pastAlso added later to the article about PCCBI looked at the PCCB of a person who had driven his 991.1 GT3RS for 25,000 km mainly on the circuit, and it was surprisingly clean and had not been worn down. I knew it was wrong to say that PCCB is not durable in general.Maybe it depends on how you drive and the track characteristics of the circuit.Na.
He said.
I had seen more information about PCCB maintenance online that was not good, but in reality, not so much.(Sometimes)I wonder if it is true. You can't understand anything until you actually experience it for yourself.
Now that I can open up a little more to the Boxster, I think I'll enjoy riding the GT3 more than before. I'd like to drive it again on a nice day.
