I change mine every 5,000 kms give or take!
I think Porsche suggests MUCH longer intervals than that,however,I can't last that long.When you do your own oil changes you can afford to do it twice as often as compared to doing it at the dealer,LOL!

Zookie,

Where do you get your oil, drain plug, oil filter, and washers and gaskets for the oil change? I know Canadian Tire has Mobil 1 0w40, but not sure where to get the rest of the stuff.

Thanks in advance

lordco carries all the filters washers and oil needed. Yes they are a little more money but just ask for the good guy charge (cash and carry account) and I find it cheaper than Canadian tire, but i run 0W40 Mobil 1 and I have never seen that weight in either burnaby coquitlam or poco canadian tire stores.
