Porsche 996 oil change

Another user requested if I would take some video clip whenever I did the oil change nevertheless digital camera crapped down so I did another most useful thing.took some photos.

The procedure is quite easy and straightforward so even weekend Do-it-yourself man can perform this.

Tools Required:
Oil Tank strain plug->19mm plug and 27mm wrench (1 1/16 will work)
Crankcase drain plug->15mm socket
Turbo strain connect (1 each side)->8mm hex
Torque Wrench (I have two since the torque values differ)

Components Needed:
Oil Filter and brand new O-rings (oil filter can come with large band) tiny is 999 707 465 40
Aluminum Sealing Ring (crankcase) 900 123 118 30
Aluminum Sealing Rings (turbos x2) 900 123 140 30
Copper Sealing Ring (oil container) 900 123 010 20
9 quarts of oil (I prefer 5W-50 Mobil1)
Oil Filter reduction Tool (mine is from the supplier but you can buy them somewhere else)

Personally, I-go for a brief drive for everything warmed-up. Be sure to have eye protection and gloves (I use latex gloves).

**quick disclaimer.you can alter the actions up and it won't make a bit of huge difference. Some like to eliminate the filter very first and then leave down until done. Other like this set of steps. I don't observe it will make a significant difference therefore do what purchase you feel well with**

**disclaimer number 2 The rec'd to pull fuse C4 is courtesy of Kevin (UMW) and he offers a good description why so kindly direct all questions with regards to this to him**

Procedures:
1. To avoid the motor from firing over with fuel trapped into the injector. Kindly pull/remove the C4 fuse Before you decide to strain your engine oil. Crank the engine over and also you may get a fast fire on a couple cylinders.. Now check out the car care.

Eliminate crankcase drain connect and empty oil. This involves a 15mm socket. You will see just a couple quarts. Once drained exchange the strain plug utilizing a new aluminum sealing ring. Fasten to 52 ft-lbs.

2. Take away the oil tank strain connect. This involves the 27mm wrench and 19mm socket. Make use of the 27mm wrench to use power OPPOSITE towards the removal of the strain plug. You can view where it goes right above the strain connect. This prevents damage to the oil container from torque created whenever getting rid of. BE MINDFUL HERE! The oil from tank is huge in quantity and happens like a geyser!!! make certain you have taken the correct precautions to prevent splatter. I use a funnel type oil enthusiast and it nevertheless gets a bit splashed. Once drained exchange strain plug with brand-new copper sealing band. Tighten to 44 ft-lb.

3. Eliminate the turbocharger drain plug and drain. You'll receive several ounces of oil. I utilized a fruit glass container. Swap strain plug with brand-new aluminum sealing ring. Fasten to 22 ft-lb. Do 2x (one for each Turbo).

**FYI.OIL FILTER IS IN THE SYSTEM COMPARTMENT**

4. Eliminate the oil filter housing utilizing the filter reduction device. Mine requires a 27mm socket. Once eliminated, neat and replace both rubber o-rings covering them with a film for the new oil. Eliminate the old filter. Even though the filter is going you will notice a good amount of recurring oil. Pull this oil. We used an infant medication dropper. It'll be a couple of ounces. As soon as removed, insert the newest filter. It will probably "snap" with regards to seats precisely. Swap the filter address. Tighten to 19 ft-lb.

5. Add 8 quarts of oil. This is only a little challenging considering that the oil filler tube is inset just a little ways right back and that means you need to be either usage a funnel or simply have a reliable hand and great aim as soon as 8 quarts have-been added, put the oil filler limit straight back on and commence the car. As soon as up to operating temp look at the oil amount and include as needed.
