Porsche 911 Engine Oil Change

Model: Porsche 911 996 - Years 1997-2005
Part: Engine oil

In this video tutorial, you will learn how to change the engine oil of a fantastic Porsche 911. Before proceeding with the disassembly steps, it is extremely important to use original manufacturer parts, including the correct oil and filters. First, lift the car from the rear and remove the oil drain plug: let all the oil drain out, then wait about half an hour (or longer if you prefer) to ensure all old residues are expelled. Next, reinstall the drain plug and lower the car from the jack stands. At this point, change the filter as shown in the video, and add the new engine oil!
