All engine oils approved by Porsche can be mixed provided they are of the same Porsche oil

specification. This means that it is not necessary to flush the engine when the oil is changed if another

type of oil is used. However, since every brand of oil has a specially adapted unique composition, the

same brand and type of oil should be used for topping up between oil change intervals if possible.
Important Notice: Technical Bulletins issued by Porsche Cars North America, Inc. are intended only for use by professional automotive technicians who have attended Porsche service training

courses. They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some Porsche vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper servicing of a vehicle. Porsche special

tools may be necessary in order to perform certain operations identified in these bulletins. Use of tools and procedures other than those Porsche recommends in these bulletins may be detrimental to the

safe operation of your vehicle, and may endanger the people working on it. Properly trained Porsche technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions, and know-how to do the job properly and

safely. Part numbers listed in these bulletins are for reference only. The work procedures updated electronically in the Porsche PIWIS diagnostic and testing device take precedence and, in the event of a

discrepancy, the work procedures in the PIWIS Tester are the ones that must be followed.
