The main purpose of the oil inside your engine is to keep internal components properly lubricated to protect them from damaging heat and friction. Safeguard your engine against harmful damage and enjoy years of reliable performance by having routine oil maintenance performed at Porsche Ann Arbor.
When Is the Right Time to Change My Oil?
While driving conditions and habits certainly vary from person to person, our team at Porsche Ann Arbor is standing by to help keep your vehicle running at peak performance. If you’re curious about the exact oil change interval that’s recommended by the manufacturer for your specific model, the best place to look is inside your owner’s manual. Due to breakthroughs in both oil technology and in-vehicle oil life monitoring systems, modern vehicles have oil change intervals that are much longer than those of the past. Although they’re required less often, oil changes remain just as important.
On some older Porsche vehicles, it’s recommended that the oil is changed every 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. Many modern Porsche models have recommended intervals of 7,500 or even 10,000 miles. Once again, we suggest that you refer to your owner’s manual or the oil life monitor inside your vehicle for more precise information. If you still need more clarification about when the oil needs to be changed in your Porsche, our friendly and knowledgeable team of Porsche service advisors are standing by to help.
