I work on both of my cars so the quickjacks work pretty well. Heaven help you if you ever decide to add a lift to your Q7, I did a 3” on my T3 and wanted to light it on fire. I too have a TDI… fantastic vehicle.

 

LOL - I'm in no danger; my Q7 is my tow vehicle and will stay bone stock. Agreed that the TDI is great. I'm still in warranty for emissions until August of 2025. After that I have to figure out how much I can de-dieselgate it without running into emissions testing issues.

 

I’ll send you a message. You can get the pre dieselgate transmission tune that gets rid of the weird cold shift issue.

 

Lift bars are great


Gets whole car up, nice and level

 

I use QuickJacks and a 3.5 gallon bucket.

 

This works for me.

 

Great examples of three different price points.

 

Definitely.
I have even changed my oil with my car on the ground.
You definitely have options when it comes to 996 oil changes.

 

Ah the memories. Since my '99 996 is lowered, I used ramps. I'd also converted to the LN spin on adapter which was a real plus.

BUT....now that age is catching up with me, and considering the hot oil bath I gave myself last time, my go-to oil change tool is now a cell phone - to schedule visits to my indy shop.

 

Porsche tractor!

 

Quickjack, large capacity oil drain pan, magnetic LN oil plug, LN filter adapter. Here on Oahu used oil is absorbed and put in the regular trash. Our trash is then burned for electricity production.

 

Yes sir. A 1958 218 Standard. 25Hp air cooled 2 cylinder diesel.

 

When your short on jack stands, having big bulldog laying around works too.

 

Cool! What is that thing worth?

 

My driveway has hump before heading down so I just drive my 911 over the hump until it’s level. This leaves the backend of my car higher off the ground. I just slide my low profile, high capacity oil collector under the sump and proceed with the oil change.
