How Often Should a Porsche Be Serviced?
1 Answers
It is recommended that the service interval should not exceed 12 months or 10,000 kilometers (whichever comes first). Under special driving conditions, the service interval may be shorter than the specified time or mileage, at which point the service reminder light on the vehicle will illuminate to indicate when maintenance is required. Below is an introduction to car maintenance: 1. Exterior inspection: Before driving, check the doors, hood, trunk, and glass condition, inspect the body for damage, whether the body is tilted, and if there are any oil or water leaks. 2. Engine and various fluids: Check the fastening condition of engine components, inspect engine joints for oil or water leaks. Check and adjust belt tension, inspect the fastening condition of hoses and wiring. Check and top up engine oil, coolant, and electrolyte. 3. Tires: Inspect tire wear and clean the trunk. Replace tires when they approach the wear indicators. Check for bulges, abnormal wear, aging cracks, or hard damage on the tires. 4. Cleaning and lubrication: Clean oil stains from the engine compartment hood, door, and trunk hinge mechanisms, and lubricate them. The general lifespan of antifreeze is 2 years, after which it should be replaced during maintenance, and the cooling system should be thoroughly cleaned. Due to the hygroscopic nature of the braking system, brake fluid should be replaced every two years.
