Sorry for the boring question. Am at home and the car's 10 mins away. And Good to Know, not working.
What oil do I need for my Gen3 GTS? Think it's C30 0W 30? And Porsche recommend Mobil.
Thanks.

Yes the C is the important bit because of the need for low sulpher and other content to keep the petrol particle filter clear. On the Gen2 and Gen 3 audi v6 some OPC's are using 0W 20 C20 as well as 0W 39 C30 despite the under bonnet sticker on my 2019 carr saying only C30FirstSeaLord wrote: ↑Thu Jan 12, 2023 4:11 pm Sorry for the boring question.

So will 5l of Mobil 1 0w30 be enough for the 2.9L Engine?

I was charged for 8L of Mobil 1 0W30 at the end of July (MY20 GTS) so I doubt 5L will be enough.mueslibrown wrote: ↑Sat Sep 09, 2023 4:23 pm So will 5l of Mobil 1 0w30 be enough for the 2.9L Engine?

£165.02 for the oil plus cost of filter & seal and labour. The MOT was reasonable though (£52).mueslibrown wrote: ↑Sat Sep 09, 2023 5:16 pmThx - do you mind sharing roughly how much they charged just for 8l of oil?On-Track wrote: ↑Sat Sep 09, 2023 4:53 pmI was charged for 8L of Mobil 1 0W30 at the end of July (MY20 GTS) so I doubt 5L will be enough.mueslibrown wrote: ↑Sat Sep 09, 2023 4:23 pm So will 5l of Mobil 1 0w30 be enough for the 2.9L Engine?
