Routine service or a problem that needs attention?
A service reminder, an oil leak and a gearbox warning call for different work. Tell us what your Carrera needs and we will help you book the right appointment. Our Al Quoz 4 workshop handles scheduled maintenance, fault diagnosis, mechanical repairs, air conditioning and bodywork.
Whether you drive a rear-wheel-drive Carrera or an all-wheel-drive Carrera 4S, the recommendation should match your car’s year, fitted equipment and condition. You can start with the model and a short description of the problem. We handle the technical checks.
Service & repair prices
How much does Carrera servicing cost?
A standard Carrera oil and filter service is estimated at AED 850–1,000. For a warning light or running problem, an initial computer diagnostic assessment is AED 250–450. Use these ranges to plan your visit; repair costs depend on the fault and parts required.
| Service or repair | Estimate, AED | What the range covers |
|---|---|---|
| Standard oil & filter service | 850–1,000 | Engine oil, oil filter and a basic engine inspection. Additional service items are quoted separately. |
| Computer diagnostics | 250–450 | Fault-code scan and initial assessment. Further fault tracing or dismantling may require a separate quotation. |
| Brake pads, per axle | 1,800–4,500 | Estimated pad replacement price. Discs, wear sensors and the fitted brake specification affect the quote; ceramic brake work is assessed separately. |
| Wheel alignment | 500–1,200 | Alignment work for the fitted wheel and suspension setup. Damaged tires, wheels or suspension parts are additional work. |
| Coolant leak repair | 1,200–3,000 | A repair budget for a diagnosed cooling-system leak. The leaking component and access determine the final repair work. |
| Ignition coils & spark plugs | 2,500–4,500 | A combined replacement estimate. The number of coils required and correct plug specification are confirmed after assessment. |
| AC compressor replacement | 3,500–6,500 | Compressor replacement budget. Contamination, other leaking components and related system work can change the total. |
These are estimated ranges, not fixed packages for every Carrera. Your written quotation sets out the parts, labor, any additional testing or fluids, and VAT treatment before you approve the work. No additional repair proceeds without your approval.

Carrera maintenance and repair services
Book a planned service or arrange an inspection for a specific concern. We explain which items need attention now, which can be monitored and what each recommended repair includes.
Oil changes and scheduled maintenance
An oil service covers the engine oil and filter, with checks for visible leaks and other immediate concerns. A wider maintenance visit can include air filters, cabin filters, spark plugs, brake fluid and other items due for your particular car. These are separate service requirements, not automatic additions to every oil change.
We match the oil approval and quantity to the engine and use the service history to avoid repeating work unnecessarily. If your Carrera is driven infrequently, age-related service requirements still matter. See the Carrera oil change options for the available service levels.
Engine diagnostics, oil leaks and cooling
A warning light, rough idle, reduced power or fluid loss needs diagnosis before a parts list. The initial assessment can lead to targeted checks of ignition, fueling, cooling or the source of an oil leak. A fault code helps direct the inspection; it does not by itself prove that the named component needs replacement.
For cooling problems, we locate the leak and assess related components before recommending a repair. If the car is overheating or displays an oil-pressure warning, stop driving and contact us about recovery assistance. Explore our engine repair services for larger mechanical work.
PDK, manual and Tiptronic repairs
Delayed engagement, slipping, unusual shifts or a transmission warning can have different causes. Carrera models use different gearboxes depending on generation and specification, so a manual clutch concern should not be treated as a PDK fault. Earlier automatic cars may have Tiptronic equipment.
We assess the fitted transmission, check relevant faults and fluid leaks, and explain whether the next step is servicing, further testing or a component repair. A complete gearbox replacement is not the starting assumption. For broader transmission work, see our transmission repair service.
Brakes, suspension and wheel alignment
Squealing brakes, pedal vibration, knocking over bumps or uneven tire wear deserve a focused inspection. Brake pad condition, disc wear, sensors and the fitted brake system determine the work. Steel and Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake systems need different parts and quotations.
For handling concerns, we check for wear or damage before recommending alignment. Replacing worn suspension parts may need to come first. Carrera wheel and tire sizes can differ front to rear, so tire rotation is not a blanket service recommendation. Read about brake servicing and suspension repairs.
Air conditioning and electrical faults
Weak cooling in traffic, intermittent cold air or unusual AC noise may involve airflow, a refrigerant leak, a control fault or a compressor problem. We inspect the system before recommending parts. Repeated refrigerant top-ups without finding a leak can leave the original problem unresolved.
Electrical concerns can include a weak battery, charging issues, warning messages or an intermittent drain. The checks depend on the symptom and fitted equipment. Tell us what happens and when it happens; you do not need to identify the faulty component. See our AC repair service.
Bodywork and pre-purchase inspections
For bumper scuffs, dents, scratches or wheel damage, the repair choice depends on the material, finish and extent of the damage. Photos can help start a bodywork quotation, with the final repair work agreed after inspection. See our body shop services for cosmetic repairs.
Buying a used Carrera? A pre-purchase inspection can help you understand its condition and likely repair needs before committing. This is a separate inspection appointment, with findings to help you assess the car and plan any recommended work.
Typical estimates
Three ways a Carrera repair budget can look
These estimates show how the price ranges relate to a particular car and job. They are not completed customer invoices or fixed offers. Final parts, labor and VAT are itemized in your own quotation.
Example 01 · Routine care
2015 Carrera: oil service
Replace the engine oil and oil filter and carry out a basic engine inspection. The oil specification and fill quantity are matched to the engine; a new filter is included.
Additional filters, plugs, leak repairs and wider scheduled maintenance are separate items.
AED 850–1,000
Estimated budget
Example 02 · Ignition repair
2017 Carrera S: coils and plugs
Replace spark plugs and the ignition coils identified as requiring replacement after diagnosis. New parts must match the engine specification.
This estimate assumes the inspection supports ignition-component replacement. It does not assume that every misfire needs a complete coil set.
AED 2,500–4,500
Estimated budget
Example 03 · Air conditioning
2019 Carrera 4S: AC compressor
Replace a diagnosed faulty compressor with a compatible replacement unit and check AC operation. The quotation identifies the chosen part and required system work.
Additional leaks or contamination can require a wider repair. Refrigerant and related materials are specified in the final quote.
AED 3,500–6,500
Estimated budget
Customer reviews & repair stories
What customers said about their repairs
Paint finish, clear updates and how the car feels after repair matter to owners. These comments were shared by our customers.

Carrera models & parts
Service choices change with the car
The Carrera name covers several generations of 911. A 996 or 997 does not have the same maintenance requirements and equipment as a 991 or 992. Engine, transmission, brake and suspension details affect the parts used and the work quoted.
Carrera S and 4S versions may have different fitted brakes, wheels or suspension equipment. All-wheel drive also adds components that are not present on a rear-wheel-drive car. We check the vehicle details during assessment rather than assuming every Carrera needs the same package.
Parts, repair choices and warranty
Your quotation identifies the part being supplied and its specification. Where more than one suitable option is available, we explain the price difference and applicable warranty. “OEM” alone is not enough to describe every part choice; the supplier and actual part should be clear.
Repairing a leak or replacing a worn component may be appropriate without replacing a larger assembly. Where replacement is necessary, we explain why. Warranty coverage for approved work is set out in the job card and depends on the parts and repair involved.
You do not need a VIN or a technical diagnosis to contact us. We may request additional vehicle details when they are needed to match a part or prepare an accurate quotation.
Arranging a service around daily use?
Tell us if the car is your daily driver, sits unused for long periods or is used for track days. This helps us discuss the relevant checks and priorities. We will agree the work and availability with you, including pickup arrangements where applicable.
Booking & handover
From your first call to collecting the car
Contact us for availability with your Carrera model and the service or problem you want help with. The time needed depends on the inspection, repair work and parts availability; we confirm the expected schedule when the work is agreed.
Book a visit
Call or WhatsApp to arrange your appointment. Free pickup and delivery are available on approved jobs, with timing and collection details agreed with the workshop.
Review the quotation
We assess the car and explain the findings, recommended work and price. Any further diagnostic work or additional repairs need your approval.
Complete the work
The agreed service or repair is carried out using the specified parts and materials. If the inspection reveals a change in work, we contact you before proceeding.
Checks and collection
The relevant checks are completed after the work. At handover, review the invoice, work completed, applicable warranty and any remaining maintenance recommendations.
Before you book
Carrera service questions
Can I book an oil service without a full major service?
Yes. A standard oil and filter service is a separate option, estimated at AED 850–1,000. We can also check whether other maintenance is due for your car. Additional items are discussed and quoted rather than automatically added to the oil service.
Will the diagnostic fee cover the complete repair?
No. The AED 250–450 range covers a fault-code scan and initial assessment. A repair, parts, dismantling or further fault tracing can be separate work. We explain the next step and obtain approval before additional charges are incurred.
Do you service Carrera S and Carrera 4S models?
Yes. You can book maintenance and repair assessment for Carrera, Carrera S and Carrera 4S models. We match the work to the generation, drivetrain and fitted equipment. Tell us which model you drive; further technical details can be checked during booking or inspection.
Does a gearbox warning mean I need a new PDK gearbox?
No. A warning is a reason to assess the transmission, not a diagnosis of complete gearbox failure. Faults, leaks, operating symptoms and the fitted transmission guide the checks. We explain whether the recommendation is servicing, further testing, component repair or replacement.
Can you give me a quote over WhatsApp?
Yes. Send the model and the service or symptom for an initial estimate. Photos can help with visible damage or a dashboard message, but they are optional. A confirmed repair quotation may require an inspection so that the parts and labor reflect the actual fault.
Is pickup and delivery included?
Free pickup and delivery are available on approved jobs. Contact the workshop to agree your location and a suitable time. If the car has a serious warning or cannot be driven safely, explain that when booking so the appropriate collection arrangement can be discussed.
How long will my Carrera be in the workshop?
A routine service and a complex engine or transmission repair require different amounts of time. We confirm availability and the expected schedule after understanding the job and parts required. Tell us about any collection deadline when you book so we can discuss a realistic plan.
Where is the workshop, and when is it open?
The workshop is in Al Quoz 4, Dubai. Opening hours are Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM; Sunday is closed. Call 056 464 6081 or WhatsApp to arrange an appointment and collection details.
