Brought my '12 VW Beetle to the guys at Select and they did an awesome job. She needed a CV axle assembly, control arms on both sides as well as a full brake job front & rear. They were knowledgeable, friendly, professional and finished the job even faster than I expected. I'd recommend Select German Car Service to anyone who is seeking quality work on their German car.

Select German Car Service has been outstanding from start to finish. Their scheduling software is incredibly easy to use, making booking and managing appointments seamless and saving time. Communication is top-notch as well, with clear and timely text updates so I always know what’s going on with my vehicle. Most importantly, the level of service and expertise is exactly what you want when trusting someone with a German car. They clearly know these vehicles inside and out and take the time to do things right. Professional, efficient, and highly skilled. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.

WHY CHOOSE AN INDEPENDENT PORSCHE SPECIALIST?

Porsche vehicles reward precise maintenance and accurate diagnosis. They can also become expensive when a shop treats symptoms without identifying the underlying issue. Our approach is to inspect carefully, use Porsche-capable diagnostic information and show you what we find before work begins.

You receive straightforward recommendations based on safety, reliability and your plans for the vehicle. Digital inspection photos make it easy to review current concerns, prioritize upcoming service and approve work from your phone.

Porsche Repair & Diagnostic Services

From a warning light or fluid leak to a suspension or drivability concern, our technicians provide Porsche repair in San Diego with an emphasis on accurate diagnosis and long-term reliability.

  • Check-engine-light and warning-message diagnostics
  • Oil and coolant leak diagnosis and repair
  • Cooling-system testing and repair
  • Brake inspection, pad and rotor service, and brake-fluid service
  • Suspension, steering and wheel-alignment service
  • Engine-performance and drivability diagnostics
  • Transmission and PDK service, when applicable
  • Battery, charging-system and electrical diagnostics
  • Air-conditioning and climate-control service
  • Pre-purchase inspections for used Porsche vehicle

Factory-Scheduled Porsche Maintenance

We follow Porsche’s applicable maintenance requirements while accounting for model, mileage, service history and driving conditions. From oil changes and brake inspections to coolant, filters, spark plugs and drivetrain fluids, we help you plan service before small concerns become larger repairs.

Select German Car Service recommends an oil-change service approximately every 6,000 miles for many vehicles as part of a preventative approach to long-term engine health. Your Porsche’s actual needs may differ based on its model, engine, age, use and service history. Every visit includes a multi-point inspection, and any additional findings are documented and discussed before work is authorized.

Porsche Models We Service

We service Porsche vehicles from daily-driven SUVs to high-performance sports cars, including the 911, 718 Boxster, 718 Cayman, Cayenne, Macan, Panamera and Taycan. Model years, engine configurations and service requirements vary, so every recommendation is based on the vehicle in front of us—not a one-size-fits-all checklist.
