Your contribution to this thread is to insult the OP and use profanity? Seriously?

Being a bit harsh to say the least. This forum is a great source of information and things are/can be extreemly expensive on a Porsche. Somethings by getting other opinions you can learn something and save some $. Your response adds nothing here, wasn't funny and might keep people (not me) from asking questions here that most likely others have as well. Perhaps you meant it as a joke but it came off very poorly. I believe an appology to the forum and OP is in order.

Since that's the case, Now Planning to Do it Myself.
Any recommendations from any Pro, Is IT easy to have it do?
How easy the oil change is depends on your mechanical ability and if you own the right tools. There is a huge downside cost to saving the few hundred dollars. I have read horror stories abot engines being damaged to the point to replacement by overfilling the oil. If you search the forum and the links provided in this post you will get a good idea of what you are in for. I would procede with caution. Good Luck and let us know what you decide.

I hope you know the OP and are simply pulling his leg or toying with him...otherwise, that a waste of bandwidth. Are you freakin' serious???? Just because someone spends good money on a car, that does not mean it is reason to THROW money away. This has got to be one of the most stupid/selfish posts I have read on this board.
