I am wondering if it is just an oil change, should I go back to the dealership, or will any oil change joint do, provided they have done oil changes on p-cars before.

Thanks for your input

 

I do mine myself. it is extremely easy!!!

 

Dealer for me.

 

If you are in So. Cal, the Speed Gallery in Studio City does an awesome job for way less money than the dealership. DIY also works haha

 

DIY ~ 100 for oil and filter.

 

So easy, but have a good container to pick up all 9 liters ;-)
You will be surprise how fast it go out ;-).
Let oil going out for 20 minutes as Porsche suggest.
Be sure the car is level (plug is in the middle of the oil pan).
Suggestion: buy the oil filter wrench to remove the plastic oil filter (approx 34$).


Good Luck !!!

 

or $4.50 at walmart

 

Thanks for the replies guys, might just have to try it out myself, when I find the time =(. Until then it just sits pretty in its throne room. Cheers to the DIYs

Hey Yoshi, here's FYI on oil change:

McKenna Porsche: $260

Pacific Porsche: $300

My way: Mobile1 0W40 @ AutoZone @ $5.99/qt. (The one at Golden Spring and Diamond Bar Blvd. carries it.)
OEM filter from Porsche parts @ $18/ea.
Go to a reputable shop and replace it.
Total spend: $100 ! !

 

My local Porsche Guru charges me $100.
