Maintenance, Car Care
Air Filter A dirty air filter not only reduces engine perfor-
mance, but can lead to premature engine wear.
Regular filter replacement is part of the routine
maintenance service.
fIn dusty conditions, check the filter element
more frequently and replace if necessary.Combination Filter The fresh air passing through the combination
filter into the passenger compartment is virtually
free of dust, pollen, and unpleasant odors.
fIf the outside air is polluted by exhaust fumes,
press the recirculating-air button.
A dirty filter can be the cause of reduced air flow:
fHave filter replaced by your authorized
Porsche dealer.
Regular filter replacement is part of the routine
maintenance service.
Manual Transmission OilThe transmission oil has to be checked and
changed at the intervals listed in your Maintenance
Schedule.
fPlease see the chapter “CAPACITIES” on
Page 239.
We recommend that you have the transmission oil
changed at your authorized Porsche dealer, who
has the required lubricants and the necessary
filling equipment.
fIf you suspect an oil leak in the transmission,
have your authorized Porsche dealer check it
out immediately.
