My wrench always over-fills my oil on my 911 and now on my Cayenne. It has never been a problem on the 911. Has anyone else experianced this on a Cayenne and had any bad consequences? (maybe I should tip the mechanic)

 

Is this a Porsche Dealer Tech? Talk to the Service Manager about it. THe guy could end up f'n up your engine one of these days. Perhaps you might want to get him a childrens counting game or some flashcards so that he can learn his numbers.

 

Yea ...if you overflow the oil it can flow into the engine catalyst causing some serious problems.......but seriously who doesnt know how to add the correct amount of oil.....

 

my CT has 2400 miles and ive had to refill the oil twice already. is this normal?

 

bitz49: my gf's turbo used to do that, we changed the oil at 5k miles, it never asks for additional oil since then, its almost 7k miles

 

Its totally normal....depending on your driving.....b/c i drive fairly aggressively i top off my oil every 3-4K miles......

 

thanks for the info.
any suggestions for mods? thinking about techart 22's but i donno how the profile 30 tires would handle LA roads. 35's seem kinda weird to me, although havent seen one in real life personally.

 

i have 295/30's on a set of 22's......i drive all over the east coast from Maine to Philadelphia and i have never had a problem bending any of my wheels.....i have them checked after each season.......im not too sure about the roads in LA..... but NYC/Jersey and Maine are pretty rough ......
