Porsche recommends having your 1992 Porsche 968’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your 968 may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.

More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Porsche 968. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1992 Porsche 968

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Porsche 968? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil runs low, these parts can grind together, overheat, and cause your 968’s engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Porsche 968 oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Porsche 968 exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Porsche 968 oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Porsche 968 oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • What does it mean if my Porsche 968 oil light comes on? The oil change light in your Porsche 968 could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Does my 968's oil filter need to be changed during my oil change? It's recommended that you replace your Porsche 968 oil filter with every oil change. Otherwise, you send fresh, clean motor oil through a dirty filter. That's like putting on muddy socks after a shower.
