I changed my previous 991.1 and .2 Turbos and also GT3 Touring.
Hoping someone has done their 992 TT/S to confirm what is needed.
Update: Dealer confirmed what is required with Porsche P/N's along with the newly specified oil required by these cars

That’s it. It’s very easy— if you have a drain pan thst catches the oil that fits underneath the car you don’t even need a lift — just a basic set of mechanics tools.

Beautiful write up! I don’t have my car set so I apologize about this question but is there an oil dipstick or is it a digital read out? Can you reset the maintenance light yourself or does it need a scan tool?
