Default Anytihng we should be greasing on a 996
Just reading another board and I noticed a greasing tool. It made me think is there anything I should be greasing each year on the 996? I think the answer is no but thought I would ask. Coupe, not a cabrio.

Didn’t know if this thread was NSFW based on the title.

The spoiler has hinges. Greased mine the other day.

Yes. I have run out of real things to do.

Not what I was expecting. I was thinking a dry lube (Porsche inevitably wants something ridiculously obscure). Only thing I typically use WD40 for is cleaning. Thanks for the tip!
