You would be correct- a lot of variables to consider here. Without a proper UOA it's hard to say.... For regular street driving we start at 5,000 mile ODI's for 300V and work our way up from there. For mixed driving (track and street), being more conservative will be a good practice- I'd recommend draining at 3,000 miles and see what the UOA looks like. Then you can really make a good determination in how to proceed with your ODI's.- Nick

what is your max oci recommendation on the 300v?

what is your max change interval using rbf600 assuming not using it for track days?

what fluid would you recommend for the 997.1 tiptronic gearbox and how would it compare to oem?

thanks!
mike

300V ODI: See previous response to OP
RBF 600 ODI: follow manufacturer ODI recommendation
997 Auto Trans Recommendation: Motul Multi ATF. We've seen reports back of superior shift response and better oxidation protection vs the OEM product. Better shear stability as well.- Nick

Welcome, thank you for your sponsorship. I too love Motul so much. I used to pour the 300V, back when it was that rich golden color, on my pancakes. Now it's green, so yuck. Still use it in my Ducatis. Great stuff though it requires frequent changes since it gets chewed up by the gearbox. Switched to Lubri-Moly in the Porsches only because it is easy to source.

I would like to thank MOTUL being the title sponsor for last years Petit Le Mans. Great event and yes, I was in the Porsche corral.

And your continued support to IMSA and Pirelli World Challenge.

I've googled "ODI" and can't figure out what it is (maybe oil drain interval?).

Can someone put me out of my misery and tell us what it means?

Thanks.

Karl.

Yes- ODI is short for "oil drain interval" - Nick

Welcome Nick, so once a year with 8100 is good for a garage queen?

So I went to the Motul site thanks to this post. So here's the background. I have 2 Porsches, an Audi, and 2 BMW's. So I need an A40, 502 00, and LL01 oil. Used to run Mobil 1 0w40 in all the cars. Then Mobil 1 lost the LL01 rating. So since then looking for another oil to end all oil. The Castrol 0w40 seems to be a contender, but Audi and BMW recommend a 5w30 or 40, not a 0w. In all temps. So here's the question finally. If I switch all the cars to 8100 motul 5w40, can I run this all year in the Porsches? Live where we get -5 or -10 winter temps. Never below that. Rarely that low, but want to be prepared.
