Porsche Cayenne Oil Change (also Panamera)

[@bobfognozzle]

OBTW I always put the filter in the cap first (on my Volvo). My thought is that oil will reach the bearings quicker on initial startup.

+@bobfognozzle can’t hurt!

🤓👍 I exclusively use the FCP kits. I also change oil every 5K miles or every year. FCP says that they will accept your used oil(if you originally bought it from them) for a full refund. I personally don’t return used oil for refund….it is just not right. I have been buying parts and supplies from them for longer than I can believe. They are a great company and stand firmly behind every part.

+@bobfognozzle they are great, but wouldn’t do an affiliate partnership with me like ECS Tuning would

Could you please explain why it's necessary to deactivate the air suspension?

[@HelpMeDIY]

+@quangbui6377 when lifting the Cayenne it can completely discharge all the air from one side or corner. When you lower it back down and the bag re-inflates, it can damage the bag. In order to avoid this potential damage, you will need to disable the leveling system.

I have a cayenne 2011 s hybrid, can i use 5w40 instead of 0w40?

+@LeapSomnang2024 I mean you CAN… whether or not that’s the best choice for that engine I don’t know.
