I have a new (to me) 2001 Box S. So should I use the zero stuff despite what the manual says or does the "zero" recommendation only apply to newer cars?

Thanks, I'm really confused.

Hi,

Use the 0W-40. Porsche changed it's recommendation for all cars based upon Mobil's reformulation....

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Thanks Jim.

I'll tell you, a forum like this is remarkable in that a novice can be helped from commiting costly or time comsuming mistakes! You folks are very kind.
