This is a precondition for optimum and
problem-free operation of your vehicle.

servicing.
It is important that the service intervals,
particularly the oil change intervals, are
observed in accordance with the specifications
in the Maintenance Schedule.
We recommend that you have the engine oil
changed at your authorized Porsche dealer.
– Oils approved by Porsche can be mixed with
each other.
– Porsche engines are designed so that no oil
additives may be used.

provides you with details of the most suitable
oil for your engine.
Your authorized Porsche dealer will be pleased to

more frequently and replace if necessary.

nance” can be found in a separate chapter.

lubricated with Automatic Transmission Fluid

may be damaged by even a tiny speck of dirt, only
a clean funnel or spout must be used when adding

and changed at the intervals listed in your Mainte-
nance Schedule.

has the required lubricants and the necessary fil-
ling equipment.
