991.1 TTS Oil Change
So I’m a little confused - nothing new! I’m getting ready to change oil in my 991.1 TTS (dealer is too far away). Every video I watch say approx 7.5 liters needs to be changed. What about the sump tank? Doesn’t it need changed also? It seems like there’s a lot more oil left to be changed than what I’m seeing and reading from the DIY people! Am I missing something? Or does Porsche only recommend changing a portion of the oil! Seems odd to be leaving so much oil in the system. Thanks

No sump tank.
Fill is 8 qts +/- 0.5 qts depending on how long you let it drip. Better to under-fill and top off.
Don’t fill too quickly. The hose from the filler cap to the ”integrated sump” only flows so fast.

Yeah pour it in slowly is good advice, learned that the hard way on my first oil change.
I've always found that the Turbo takes about 8.5 quarts. Put in 7 3/4 then fill as needed.
I had an 2012 C2S before and it seemed to take just about 7.5 quarts. Good luck.
