Box S Oil change

[pteam]

Ok we're changing the box S oil this week. I did do a search and found out most of the stuff, its kinda hard because a search using the word "oil" isnt allowed because its not enough letters.

What kind of filter do I need? Recommended oil is Mobile 1 0W 40 right fully synthetic? I need about 9 quarts? If I can't find 0W 40 then 5W 40 is next best? I seen brucelee uses Redline. What are your experiences on which is better? I'm in Ohio so we definately have cold winters, although I don't drive it in the winter, stored inside a semi heated garage. thx

5-40 synthetic should be fine. I always bought OEM filters from dealer.

good luck.

Do you have a part number or brand type of filter? I'm not going to the dealer so I need to buy it somewhere. Thx

Try pelicanparts.com . They should have the oem filter for +/- $10.

the M1 5w-40 will be just fine.

while the redline is a great oil. its not a porsche certified oil.

if you can find it, try something like elf/total. it will be harder to find than M1 though.

if you are going to the dealer, then just tell them the year, make model, and they will tell you what you need. you can also try suncoast.
