Sounds like a bad break-in. The rings didn't settle properly. That is because these engines need to see high rpm right after the factory. Obviously properly warmed-up before and cooled down each time.
Great that Porsche did the right thing. You have to love this brand!

Enough track days, and you'll never really need an oil change. A filter maybe, but not oil ...

Rob- Could it be that our seasonal cold weather is causing the oil level to rise? If the oil doesn't get hot enough to boil/evaporate the water condensation produced by combustion, it's possible to increase the volume in the oil system temporarily (until you get a chance to get it hot enough).
Or maybe the level indicating system sucks![Wink](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
