Porsche recommends changing your 1986 944’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your 944 in the above table. Outside of Porsche-recommended oil change intervals, your 944 may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Porsche if you regularly haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, adventure off-road, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Porsche 944. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

Porsche has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the best motor oil for your 1986 944.

You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your 944 by taking into account your driving style, local climate,
