However I use Redline 5W40 for the Ferrari, because it is a 100% "real" synthetic oil.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

18 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

I like a light massage oil scented with rose water mysefl.

POST 4Original post

I use Mobil 1 5W-50. It's great for when the engine's being pushed(like on a track) but works fine on the street too. Edit: Just saw in your sig that your c4s is sold. Are you talking about oil for a cayenne?

POST 11Original post

I have been using Mobil 1 0W40 for both the 996 and the Cayenne. As from the recent post you can see the Mobil 1 did a good job for my 100k miles 996. However I use Redline 5W40 for the Ferrari, because it is a 100% "real" synthetic oil. The Mobil 1 oil is only partial synthetic stock, although the label says 100% synthetic.

POST 12Original post

Oil, we don't need no stinking oil!!! Apparently you missed my post a couple of years ago. Go here to find out the latest on oil for 96"s https://rennlist.com/forums/996-foru...x-problem.html

Just add it to the gas . . . it ends up there anyway.

whatever Jiffy Lube reccomends. They are the experts, I am not.

Lube? (it was a joke) ;-) I wouldn't have them touch my lawn mower.
