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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well, every spring from new my 2004 996 AE has had fresh oil and filter change. Always exciting to check the LN Mag drain plug, cut open the filter and pull a little oil for Blackstone. At 32k mi and change my AE only gets out for special Porsche events. Other cars get more attention. But each time I do drive her I remember why I picked the AE. Another year of clean oil, clean filter, nothing on mag plug. Fresh 0W40 yes, Mobile One going in.

POST 2Original post

Beautiful car! Twice a year might be better for a car not driven so much.

POST 4Original post

I just did mine Tuesday oil is off to Breakstone. New air filter just arrived. Going to add my 997.1 air box that has been on a shelf for a year. Then to a brake flush. Ahhhh.....the fun of owning a budget super car.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the 6 mo oil change tip. I figure every 12 mos has served this car well so far. WP done, sparky done, coil packs done. Fister of course. Light weight GT3 Euro replaced heavy electric seats. PSS10s and Euro ride height and alignment. Love this car. So far BS reports are great. No water or coolant in oil and numbers are good. She gets good and heated up (nice workout drive) every other month here in Sunny SoCal so not a lot of miles but she also doesnt sit for extended periods of time.

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