How?
Does a six have the same set-up as a four? Drain plug, sump plate & screen? Thanks... |

The owners manual reccommends for the 6, change at 6k. The newer Porsches are going up to 15k. I change at 6k on the 6 and the RSA. With a external oil cooler, takes a bit over 11 qts.
Another thing I do is, drain the oil filter and cut her open with a chisel and look for metal. I also use a magnet in the oil filter, it's called a cow magnet, bout 1/2 in dia by 3 inches long. I run them in everything. Everytime I've had a problem, the magnet showed it first, plus it pulls the crap out of the system. Later, Don |
