Porsche new-be. With all the COVID-19 stuff going on, is it okay to delay oil change or any maintenance? I haven't driven the car much (about 2K miles), sadly due work schedule. It's been a year since my last oil change.

I'm pretty OCD about oil changes, but I can understand if circumstances delay service. Everybody's circumstances are different.

Can you at least get the car out and up to operating temperature every week or two weeks?

Thinking out lout here...

Is your vehicle under warranty?

Wondering if you were under warranty, and did not follow the maintenance intervals, then this might negatively impact a warranty claim if involving anything lubricated by motor oil.

Additionally, the plus on having an oil change also provides visual inspection of the underbody and other components that could go un-noticed and has potential to create more troubles down the road.

Lots of varying opinions on this and since this is a open forum, I would guess being proactive versus reactive would be favorable in most cases.
