Has anyone been able to obtain an "Official Porsche" published "Maintenance Schedule" for a 992?
I can find a lot of Porsche Dealers who are publishing their own version of a 992 Maintenance Schedule. But those are rather varied and predictably self serving. I can find a 997 Maintenance Schedule published by Porsche (see attached). But for some reason Porsche has, to the best of my knowledge, not published anything beyond the rather brief and cryptic 10,000 and 30,000 automatic Maintenance Flags set by the on-board system of the 992 itself.

Have you checked your (the) owner's manual? Or online say, on Porsche.com?

Yes, nothing in either.

Here is a previous link... And somewhere under my user name I posted both PDFs for the user manual and the service manual (for the 992 - 2020 model - which is the same) - it has been a few years ago and I started to look, but was taking to long for me to find that post.

Here is a link to some details - and somewhere I posted the actual service manual...

I was just going off this. Seems to match several other websites.

Engine Oil Every 10,000 miles or or 1 year
Spark Plugs Every 30,000 miles or every 3 years
Pollen Filter and Air Filter Every 40,000 miles or every 4 years
Coolant Every 20,000 miles or 2 years
Brake Fluid Every 20,000 miles or 2 years

Your post with the 2020 PDFs is in this thread (Online manual available? - Rennlist - Porsche Discussion Forums) - thanks for that, BTW!

its not in the main manual but there is another smaller booklet that has the schedule, that you should have gotten with your other docs.

The problem is . . . . these are not Porsche's.
Example: The Coolant and Brake Fluid numbers are not from Porsche. The dealer seems to be using a version of what tends to be considered "industry standard" in terms of years and the miles are about 4,000 less than that.

Found it . . . . Porsche Publication #: WKD 902-00-23-21

I have those, both in hard copy and electronically. None of the three has any sort of a Maintenance Schedule in them.

”where the hell is that sensor to open the damn frunk???”

I would like to know so I don’t look crazy waving my hand around the emblem until it pops open lol. Almost as bad as me dancing behind the suv trying to get the back open.

Slide one finger from left to right directly below the porsche emblem on the bumper (not the hood). Works very consistently for me. I usually use the back of my finger held flat against the bumper to increase vertical area I'm sliding across, but i don't know if that's necessary.

Care to share (a pdf) with the class?

I wonder how difficult the spark plug change will be.

M Engineering has a post with a bunch of photos doing a 992 Turbo in their tune thread in this forum, I believe it's post #1000. The Carrera should be very similar - probably a little easier to access the rearmost plugs actually. Either way, you need a specialty thin-walled spark plug socket and a collection of wobbles and extensions. They recommended removing the rear bumper and turbos. I've read that it can be done without removing either, but it might not be faster given the tight space you have to work with in there.
