17 CS,, have the oi,filter,o ring for filter, cant find a crush washer, is one needed or do i need a new drain plug each oil filter...Pelican parts doesnt show just the crush washer

 

In a 2017-2019 911 991.2 your oil pan is composite material - aka plastic - so you have no crush washer

 

thank you

 

You can use a flat head screwdriver to remove but this tool is good to have (amazon etc.):
CTA Tools 1037 VW/Audi Oil Drain Plug Tool

 

Hazet makes a nice one specifically for these composite plugs.

oil change went easier than expected, was watching guy on youtube, step by step..new filter was a little difficult to get on but i put some oil on the affected ends and it slipped right on,,took 8 qts.easy peasy..:}

 

I was told by a Porsche mechanic, To do it correct, the fanatical German Porsche way is to...do an overnight drain...
I would always do that, FYI
I agree with that.

 

Try to get a dealer to do that! Mine is due for its 1st oil change soon and I will keep track of how long they keep it on the lift at the dealer. And no, I do not change my own oil since the 1st one is free and more importantly I do not like to get my hands dirty.

 

Thank you for the link to the adapted tool ;-)

 

I have three questions:
- What is the correct torque value for the composite oil plugs?
- Should they be replaced with each change or can they be reused?
- Since Porsche recommends to initially under-fill the oil and - even with the final fill - stay one line below FULL, how many quarts wink get me about half-way up on the indicator?

Thanks,
Rainer

 

The plastic plug cams and clicks in the composite pan. It’s not a torque type of fastener.
It is recommended to replace with each oil change. Do not buy on amazon. People have reported failures. Buy from reputable German parts supplier. I use RMEUROPEAN.COM.
I drained my 4GTS on Quick Jacks for about 1 hr and it drained about 8.6 qts. I replaced with the same but initially about 0.5 qt less and then drove the car and got the digital oil level readings and then added a bit more. Rinse and repeat until happy.
