It looks like I am low on oil and have to add some in the 987. I just calledf the dealer to verify which kind they use and some guy said castro synthetic. I always seem to read mobil 1 on this board. Is it okay to mix brands? My actual oil change is due in about 3500 miles.....
Super, how many "bars" are you low? For every bar, you need approx 1 cup of oil. Our digital oil gage is very-very accurate. At lest this has been my experience.
FYI- I did 1,900 hard miles (lot of 4,000-6,000 RPM's) last week for the TOD trip, and I did not use a smidge of oil. I am running 5W40 Red Line oil at the present time.

any advice?
That's scary. You'd think they would push what Porsche recammends...M1 0w40. I hope you spoke to a sales rep or front desk clerk and not a tech/mechanic because the person on the other end is not giving you the right advice. Does Castrol even make 0w40 oil?
thanks for the offer b! unfortunately I have some mothers day stuff today....I'm gonna go put it in....I am below the low point but its not flashing at me yet where its dangerous...I'm just glad I noticed it.....
I picked up the mobil and its in a silver bottle...
adam - the frickin service manager didn't call me back yesterday and I called him 3 times yesterday.....they sent me to the oil area for the dealer and they said bring it in and I'll put in the castro....so that put up a flag....
I really haven't had a good experience with that dealer yet...its the one that did your PSE b....
