Porsche Classic Motor Oil 10W-60 (1 Liter)

Starting from the 3.0-litre engine with dry-sump lubrication, the flat-six engines of the 911 are more suited to fully synthetic oils. They allow air-cooled engines to reap all the benefits of technological advances in oils. Porsche Classic’s 10W-60 version is an absolute ultra-high-performance oil. Its viscosity guarantees optimum lubrication behaviour, both during cold starts and in a hot engine at full throttle. The fully synthetic PAO-based (polyalphaolefin) oil also has excellent properties in terms of evaporation loss, HTHS and shear stability. Anyone venturing onto a race track in a 911 would also be well advised to use the 10W-60 oil, since it cares for and cleans the engine. For example, the additives ensure that the flow of oil reliably transports particles and contaminants to the oil filter.

The oil change intervals for individual vehicle and engine types can be found in the relevant driver’s manuals. Engine oil should be changed once a year regardless of distance travelled, since short trips can have a particularly adverse impact on oil. Frequent cold starts mean that increased quantities of fuel, combustion products and moisture enter the oil. This is compounded by the fact that the engine never heats up properly and hence the by-products cannot evaporate. Your first port of call for an oil change should be a Porsche Centre. This is where customers can purchase the Porsche Classic Motor oil in one or five-litre containers. It’s worth mentioning in passing that the container itself is a real eye-catcher, designed by the Porsche designers in the Development Centre in Weissach.

Matching oil filters are of course also available from every Porsche Partner in addition to the Porsche Classic Motor Oil.

And if you’re going to be using original Porsche oil in your original Porsche, you’re going to need an oil change label in the engine compartment. Porsche Classic has designed one to match.Note: This item is not eligible for International shipping, Ground shipping in the US (lower 48 states) only.
