Ferrari Factory Service & Maintenance at Foreign Affairs Motorwerks
A comprehensive, step-by-step vehicle inspection on all major systems is performed by Foreign Affairs Motorwerks’ team of highly trained Ferrari service technicians. We adhere to all factory service requirements for each specific model and model year as indicated on the Ferrari maintenance schedules. Any repairs identified by the inspection process will be fully root-caused with a cost estimation provided beforehand to ensure the highest customer satisfaction.

And of course, we will also tailor our services to your vehicle’s needs based on its specific model year, trim, and your driving style.

Every inspection culminates in a road test. Later models use titanium connecting rods which are very sensitive to corrosive agents in oil. We recommend that you adhere to a minimum yearly oil change interval. Failure to replace cam belts can also lead to catastrophic engine damage, given the rev-happy nature of your Ferrari-V engine. Our skilled technicians and the latest computer diagnostic equipment combine to give you ultimate customer satisfaction.
