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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My 2003 996 has only 4800 miles on it, and its almost a year since I got it last april. Should the car need an oil/filter change now? What kind of prices should I expect from the dealers around L.A.? Thanks.

POST 2Original post

Yes the factory recomends 15,000 miles or one year as an oil change interval. I believe you should do it 7,500 or 1 year. I am a DIY person, but I told oil changes are about $150-200 at the dealers.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you for the info. I'll make an appointment then.

POST 4Original post

Make sure they change the filter along with the oil. Some manufacturers change the filter every other oil change. I'm not sure if Porsche is one of them as I have yet to get my first oil change.

POST 5Original post

also i think a number of dealers will give you 10% off for being a pca member but you have to mention it.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
