Oil Leaks

How often should I service my Porsche?
Regular servicing is crucial to maintaining your Porsche’s performance, safety, and long-term value. Most Porsche models require servicing every 12 months or 15,000 km, whichever comes first, although some performance models may have more specific requirements. We’ll help you stay aligned with the recommended service schedule to keep your Porsche performing at its peak.
-
Do I need genuine Porsche parts?
While it’s not essential to use genuine Porsche parts, we strongly recommend using either genuine or high-quality OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) components. These parts are made to meet Porsche’s exacting standards and help preserve your vehicle’s performance, safety, and value. We source trusted parts that ensure your Porsche continues to deliver the driving experience you expect.
-
Does booking in at a non-dealership avoid my warranty?
No, your Porsche warranty will remain valid as long as servicing is carried out by qualified technicians using the correct procedures and parts. We follow Porsche’s factory specifications closely, so you can maintain your warranty while enjoying more flexibility and value than a dealership service.
-

Testimonials
What our customers are saying
Amazing experience!
I booked my A5 in to be looked at after Audi Centre Fortitude Valley said I needed new brakes all around and 7k worth of repairs.From the beginning, the experience was fantastic. From booking and being offered a loan car to arriving and being offered a coffee, it really is the small things that lead to an amazing experience.
Turned out nothing Audi had found was correct and I was shown video proof. All the car needed was some new front brakes. Cannot highly recommend these guys enough!

Efficient, thorough and I left feeling I understood the problem. The token to get a fabulous coffee from the barista outside. Can not recommend Accelerate Automotive highly enough. As a woman who knows nothing about motors and cars, the Technicians took the time to explain it, so I understood it.

Service and supplies you won’t get anywhere else
A lot of later-model Porsche's require specialist parts like oils that can’t be found in most garages and workshops. As a European car mechanic, you can be confident your car will be serviced with the highest quality and correct supplies required to keep your Porsche running perfectly, while ensuring we don’t compromise your warranty. Be warned – going with a generic alternative as a ‘cheap’ one-size-fits-all solution can be an expensive mistake.
