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

You'll need 9 litres, which used to be awkward as it came in 4L containers, but I think they now have it 5L containers.

POST 2Original post

I am taking my 996 for a major service on monday. I am going to save some money and buy my own oil form Costco tomorrow. How much oil do I need to bring? Is it 8 litres?

POST 3Original post

i went to costco today and bought 12 lires as i asked this question last week. u need 10 litres im told and they sell it in 4ltr containers. 8 litres in costco was £50 and im supplying my own for next service next week. Im guessing that ill get back a container with 2ltrs left in it. bit of a pain they dont do it in 5ltr tanks

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

The actual capacity is 10.25 litres, but the change quantity is stated as 8.25 litres. Shame the new 5L containers haven't filtered there way into Costco yet.

POST 5Original post

They will give you the 2ltrs back, but it will come in handy for top-ups.
