Porsche Maintenance
Our certified mechanics not only service Porsche's regularly, but we are also trained in the latest technology and know-how to troubleshoot any problems that can arise with your vehicle. We equip our technicians with the newest equipment so that new technology is never a surprise or issue for us.


Porsche Fuel Injection Servicing
Fuel injection services can vary from shop to shop and from cleaner to cleaner. We have used quite a few and have found the BG system to be superior to most. A service consists of running the vehicle until warm, and then the vehicle’s fuel system is disabled. The pressurized BG fuel system cleaner is then connected to the vehicle and the engine is started. The engine actually runs on the cleaner, allowing it to work through the injectors, intake valves, combustion chambers and exhaust valves. Any unburned cleaner goes by the oxygen sensors and through the catalytic converter.

We then disconnect the cleaner and reconnect the vehicle’s fuel system. After restarting and road testing, the engine control system is reset to factory settings, and any related service codes are deleted.

We have tested the results and are honestly excited about the improvements that can be felt and seen. For example, We have had multiple vehicles that had failed smog inspections. We performed FI services and they passed. These vehicles would have otherwise needed new catalytic converters. The wasted unburned cleaner can cause the catalytic converters to self-clean, and the cleaner helps reduce NOX emissions by cleaning the carbon from the combustion area. We have even had customers tell us their gas mileage increased after a service. We recommend the service every 50,000-75,000 miles.


What about Porsche oil change?
Porsche has embraced Mobil 1™ engine oil. All Porsche's coming off the factory line are filled with Mobil 1™.

Because Mobil 1 motor oils are designed to provide exceptional performance and protection in extreme conditions, Porsche recommends the unique formulation for all of their gas-powered models

It is very important to frequently inspect all fluids, belts, tires and hoses. A visit to German Car Depot, every 6 months or 6,000-7,500 miles to change the oil and filter, adjust tire pressures and perform a comprehensive inspection can save you money over the life of your Porsche. It could also save you the inconvenience of a breakdown.

Why original Porsche brake parts?
Over the years we have tried many different variations of brake components on Porsche's, and what we have learned is that the original brake rotors and linings perform better for street use than any other combination. The superior cold performance and lack of any noise or vibration makes them ideal for daily driving. The only drawback to original equipment is the dark grey brake dust caused by the high carbon linings.

After-market linings can cure the dust problem but quite often create other issues. A shaking steering wheel as you slow from freeway speeds, and even when not braking, can often be cured with Porsche's brake discs/rotors. As the non-original rotors heat cycle from driving, they often become warped like an vinyl record.

The Porsche rotors are cast from very soft and porous steel; they dissipate heat very uniformly, and when the factory linings are used, the pores at the surface of the rotors collect and hold carbon from the linings to help adhesion and minimize vibrations (noise). Ever notice the way the rotors on your Porsche rust in what seems like minutes after a car wash?

Also, sometimes squeaks can be heard on a rainy day. This is a result of washing the carbon away. Our recommendation is original brakes on your Porsche unless you intend to compete. Remember to go easy on your new brakes for the first 200 miles. This will harden the lining materials and maximize the performance and longevity of the linings. Most brake jobs can be done the same day at German Car Depot.

Brake fluid
The brake system of your Porsche uses a glycol-based hydraulic fluid. This fluid is “hygroscopic,” which means it will absorb moisture over time. Moisture lowers the boiling point of the fluid and causes internal corrosion in the brake system. That’s why the fluid should be replaced when brake repairs are done every two years (regardless of mileage) as preventive maintenance. German Car Depot, uses a pressure bleeding system to ensure all of the fluid is replaced and no air is introduced.


Coolant
The coolant in your engine serves three important purposes. One is to protect your engine from damage from freezing. Here in sunny South Florida we typically don’t need to worry about freezing. The second is to keep the engine cool, and here that is far more important. We all need to be cool, right?

The third is just as important, and that is to protect the engine from corrosion. One specific measure of protection is pH. If you have ever had a swimming pool then you know about pH. pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. Liquids with a pH less than seven are considered acidic, while those with a pH greater than seven are considered basic (alkaline). A pH of 7.0 is neutral (like pure water).

The coolant pH in your Porsche started at 8.5 and after a couple of years will dip into the 6 range. At this point it’s doing more harm than good. Gaskets, hoses and seals are no longer being protected – they’re being eaten! It’s a slow process, but irreversible. It is very important to replace the coolant with the correct type every three years or so. At German Car Depot, we use the factory zero phosphate coolant and can replace it in about an hour. If your radiator is leaking or you see a green-colored liquid beneath your vehicle, bring it into our Service Center, and we will diagnose it for you quickly.


Power Steering
The power steering fluid of your Porsche is just as important as the coolant or brake fluid. The fluid is used to assist the driver when steering, but just as importantly, it lubricates the steering gear that turns the wheels. It is pumped from its reservoir by a belt driven hydraulic pump through hoses and then to the steering gear. After the fluid passes through the gear it goes through more hoses to the cooler and then back to the fluid reservoir.

The absence of a filter can cause problems; if a pump or gear starts to fail, the debris is sent through the entire system, resulting in an expensive repair. The fluid, when new, helps condition the hoses and seals within the system. After time, the conditioners break down, resulting in hoses and seals that become hard and brittle.

Power steering hose replacements are among the most common Porsche repairs. Porsche has no recommended service interval for replacing the power steering fluid. At German Car Depot, we recommend changing the power steering fluid every 30k miles.
