Car is in for service and there was some oil found. Here is a link to the video. Let me now your thoughts. I wonder if it’s from the last oil change, that was done by a non-Porsche dealer. I say this only because of where he found it. Maybe just clean it up and see if it leaks later on.

I’m leaving it at the dealer, the CPO is still effective until next year. We will see.

I’ll certainly keep you guys posted. Don’t know about mileage, but about one month since the last oil change.

I will ask about this, but I think the issue is not related to anything at all. But, we will see. I will ask about this though, juts in case.

Bingo, sort of. I mentioned to the selling dealer, that there was a warning about “oil above maximum level”, and for them to fix that. I know that an oil change was performed within a month’s time at this dealer, and when I asked the salesman what they did about this message,, he explained that they let out about 1/2 quart of oil. I’m pretty sure things got messy and this is what was left of it. That was done two days ago and I picked up the car yesterday. The reason why this oil looks fresh and at the location it’s at. I’m surprised a reputable dealer(selling dealership) like them, would do this.

The drip looked like new clean oil to me. I was also thinking overfill. Cleanup and monitor. Good that you have the active CPO just in case. Try not to worry.

I completely agree with the new oil. It was essentially done the day before. I was worried, but my service advisor just reassured me to not worry and that it’ll be handled. I also told them that my drivers side door panel is kind of warping. I’ve read about a handful of people running into this. It’s like the panel is bending away from the window, and coming apart from the end cap. That will be replaced too. So I’m feeling really good about that. Other than that, I was very pleased with their inspection and feedback. It was very positive and they commented on the great condition, in and out.

Update for everyone. It’s a front crankshaft seal that they are going to replace. I’ve heard of older 911s having this issue, but not a 991. Anways, they are working on the car now. I’m glad they found the issue and it’s being taken care of.
