I changed the oil over the weekend with Mobil 1 15w-50
Some obs
1. The magnetic Plug I bought off of this site takes a different size Allen Key than the 996 OEM plug. The mag is more the size I use on my 66 911.
2. Getting the correct amount of oil level is pretty time consuming and the digital gauge seem to read differently more often than I would expect.
3. Depended on the dip stick although it is not easy to read.
4. After the oil change first odd thing was a sound like a valve lifter that was not quite pumped up like you would hear on a Chevy V8 with hydraulic Valve lifters when oil is low.
5 Above sound went away and 1/2 a day later after the car was parked outside "covered" I experienced a odd engine idle problem that actually made the car rock/shake. This went away after a small drive.
Has anyone else experienced 4 and 5 above?
