Porsche Service in Burbank, CA

Porsche Service Serving All of Burbank, CA

Burbank is a long way from the ocean air that evens out temperatures on the Westside. Summer mornings along Glenoaks Boulevard and in Magnolia Park start mild, and by mid-afternoon the same streets can be twenty or thirty degrees hotter. Tires follow the air. A tire loses or gains roughly one psi for every ten degrees, so a swing like that moves a Porsche's pressures by two or three psi between the first drive of the day and the drive home from a studio lot in the Media District.

The pressures on the door placard or fuel-filler flap are cold pressures, set for the car's handling, and many models run different pressures front and rear. Top the tires up at a gas station on a hot afternoon, with the tires already warm from driving, and they will read low at dawn, often low enough to light the warning. The fix is to set pressures cold, first thing, before the car has moved. Before you call us, check this: if the warning comes on at dawn and clears once the tires warm up, that is usually temperature, not a leak. A warning that stays on after a warm drive, or one tire that keeps losing air, is worth a look.

Why Burbank Drivers Trust The Werkstatt

A tire pressure warning in Burbank can be temperature, a slow leak, a valve or a sensor, and a warning light on its own is not a diagnosis. Porsche has been our only make for more than 30 years, every model line from the 911 and Boxster to the Cayenne and Panamera. We're one independent shop, at 10527 Santa Monica Blvd, over the hill via the 405. Call or request a quote and we'll get back to you as soon as possible; bring the car in and we'll evaluate it and give you a quote.

• Cold pressures are the ones on the placard, and tire date codes matter as much as tread; both are part of what a Porsche minor service covers
• A tire pressure warning that won't clear can be a leak, a valve or a failed sensor, and a sensor fault falls under Porsche electrical diagnostics
• Coming from the Valley, it pays to combine the jobs that are due into one trip
• Porsche is the only make we work on, every model line from the 911 and Boxster to the Cayenne and Panamera
• Cars that bake on Valley lots wear out batteries sooner, because heat shortens their life

About Burbank, CA

Burbank is its own city at the eastern end of the San Fernando Valley, between the Verdugo Mountains and the eastern end of the Santa Monica Mountains, with Griffith Park to the south. It is known for its studios: Warner Bros. and Walt Disney Studios are both in the Media District. Hollywood Burbank Airport is on its northwest side, and the 5 and the 134 cross the city.

Downtown Burbank, around San Fernando Boulevard, is the shopping center, and Magnolia Park has older storefronts along Magnolia Boulevard. Away from the studio lots, most cars park in driveways and surface lots, out in the sun. The shop is across the Valley and over the hill in West Los Angeles.
