How Often to Get 2013 Porsche Panamera Oil Changes

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2013 Porsche Panamera? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! We're experts in more than tires. Oil and lube services are also our specialties. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Porsche recommends changing your 2013 Panamera’s oil at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Outside of Porsche-recommended oil change intervals, your Panamera may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, 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, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Porsche Panamera. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
