I disagree with Madmods... I was curious about since the IMS bearing is such a flaw in these cars why it was never adressed and warrantied. So I called Porsche and they proceded to tell me that because people "don't drive them they way they are made" is not their problem.

He said the 10k miles per oil change is build for cars that are being driven hard and are then allowed to cool properly. Basically a track car is what he was describing... But on the streets 5k mile oil changes are the best idea, and earlier can never hurt. You'll find a lot of members on the forum change it between 3k and 5k miles.
