Default aluminum paste?

Quick and stupid question: where to get the aluminum paste for centerlock? Can't seem to find the darn thing, unless pay for bulk

Thanks, and sorry for being a noob at this.

Ordered it from suncoast.

$32 or something. I can’t tell from looking at it that it is any different than peramtex, but I guess I now have a third antisieze on the shelf with my favorite wurth copper.

I also got a Porsche oil bag and the tube of antisieze fits in there with a quart of oil. I also ordered the oil filter kit and they sent me new drain plugs (not sure why).

Those should work well. If the cap holds the oil in, you can pre load a few and store them in the fronk instead of the bottle of oil itself. I will never top off this car with anything but a syringe

Any idea how many syringes = one bar on the display?
It seems so finicky to figure out how much to add without going over....

No more than 4oz's
Drive around few days, take additional oil level readings. Also make sure you get at least one measurement after first start, and it had a chance to sit overnight.
