When Is the Right Time to Change My Oil?

Although driving habits and conditions can certainly vary from person to person, the Blue Grass MOTORSPORT team is here to help you keep your vehicle running at peak performance. If you’ve been wondering about the exact oil change interval that’s been recommended by Porsche for your exact model, we recommend referring to your owner’s manual. Thanks to breakthroughs in the development of in-vehicle oil life monitoring systems and oil technology, many modern vehicles have longer oil change intervals compared to those of the past. While they’re needed less frequently, oil changes continue to be just as important.

With some older Porsche models, it’s suggested that the oil be changed every 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. The majority of 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 exact information. In the event that 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 here to help.
