Porsche 986/987 Boxster Oil Change! Complete DIY! With Blackstone Labs Test

Hi Everyone! This is our oil change video for a Porsche 986/987 Boxster (S)!. Sorry it is so long 😉 It is the “complete” process including cutting open the filter element for inspection and a bit about using Blackstone Laboratories for oil analysis. That makes for a lot of steps! It is pretty straight forward and should take less than an hour depending on the steps you preform. I believe this also applies to the 996, 997, and 987 1998 through 2008. Not sure of the 987.2 2009 cars. The 996 and 997 are similar, just the engine is in a different spot 😉. If you have any questions or comments (or is I left anything out), please leave them below. Always consult your Owner’s Manual/Shop Manual to verify all steps and values. The following steps are optional: • Prefilling the oil filter housing half way with oil. • Blackstone Laboratories oil test. The parts used are: • Oil Filter Kit (includes large rubber O-Ring): Hengst E14H D77 (99610722560) or MAHLE https://goo.gl/yJLkuD • Case drain plug washer: 900-123-106-30 18X24 (Al) You’ll need: • Filter Cover Socket: 000-721-920-40 • 8mm Hex • Torque Wrench • 10Qts of oil Torque Values: • Case Drain Plug: 37 Ft-Lbs • Oil Filter Cover: 19 Ft-Lbs The oil I use is Mobil1 0W-40, but use what is specified by your owners manual. Oil Test is Blackstone Laboratories (https://www.blackstone-labs.com) I have no affiliation with Blackstone and they did not pay for this kit or Heidi and Franny’s Garage and have no knowledge of this use prior to this video.
