Oil Change Service HELP PLEASE

[simonsprp]

Hi

Well my its the first time i have come to get Vee serviced ... thankfully its just a yearly oil change (In 2013 it had the full works at £1800 cost)

I have selected a porsche specialist in the north east who are going to be happy to work on my vee link below , they where recommended by some turbo owners at my work.

Anyways they have asked that i supply the oil filter (Easier for them) can someone give me a store link / ebay link to the correct oil filter kit for my MK2 255 ?

Also some advice on the correct grade of oil / brand as i may supply that myself . i have looked but so many threads !

Cheers si

I've always ran Mobil 1 - 15W 50. More track focused Oil than the 15W 40. Or so i was advised by Mobil 1.

Ive been running Castrol EDGE 5w/40 for the past couple of years, no problems to report. Infact #243 is getting a full oil change later this evening and Im replacing with the same oil. :approve:

I use Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 5W-40 for the Vee, and Opie Oils has a deal where you get 1 free litre with every purchase of 5 litres, which is ideal since the Vee needs just over 5 litres: LINK
