I wouldn't bother changing the oil. Wait until the recommended service interval.

DIY , i do mine every 10,000 miles all in less than £100, just check out oil and filter online to see the real cost, if you can't do it find an indie.

Mine cost £413 last February after 15k miles and 17 months, they collected and returned it under the Covid regime but there were no courtesy cars available when I had the 24 month service done in August. :(

I think the relevant question is, is your warranty still valid if you get your oil change done outside of an OPC?

Realistically, how would anyone know? But I'm still wondering why the car needs an oil change outside its service guidelines.

The car and it's sensors define when the oil needs changing, certainly for Gen2 models. There's plenty about that in other threads but it seems it's driven more by the number of starts and cold miles than anything else.

Yes Neil us correct. You need to take the long road and ensure car reaching full operating temperature i.e oil re 90 Deg after each cold start.
I would not postpone/ delay change if car saying needed as could trigger warranty issues.

Yes, provided Porsche specified parts and materials are used.

There are plenty of people that don’t like 20k mikes service intervals. No matter how good modern oils are a used oil after 10k cannot protect as well as fresh oil for the next 10k.

My car had an extra oil change in January, will need to check the service invoice but recollection it was just under £300


Checked invoice £297
