Yearly oil change on 987 gen II 2.9 recommended?


Recommended Posts

Hi all, new owner here. The service schedule is 2 years. Would you recommend a yearly oil change? Anything else that is recommended yearly? Mileage will be low 2-3k per year ("weekend" and holidays car). Thanks! Pictures of the car coming soon.

It's certainly not going to hurt.

 

Main question is, is your oil coming out black at your current oil change interval? If so maybe it's time to do it more often.

 

If it comes out golden then you might be able to get a few more miles out of it but again, it doesn't hurt...

If you're only doing 2-3k per year, I wouldn't bother.  This is dependent upon your driving though.  If you are track driving or often find yourself near the red line, I would recommend more frequent oil changes.

Thanks for the quick replies! No track driving or "red line". Will monitor and hopefully just have it done at each service.
