Hi Don,
I believe Porsche was listed briefly on DAX but Porsche disagreed with
some of the

Porsche
decided yearly was enough. Neither would back down so Porsche decided they
had
no need for DAX.
And, Yes, Porsche

Even with low miles driven it's still important to change the oil at least
yearly. Once in 20 years is a little long. That's an understatement for
those who don;t know - it's wy too long. ;-)
Synthetic may last longer - never needed to know that - but I have never

As Tom says, Oil Analysis tells much more than what's happening with the

all the stuff in the engine compartment.
The Oil Analysis Report is basically grouped in 3 sections. 1st, the
properties of the metals

My dad's ole mechanic was rather intuative and used to smell the exhaust

or
coolant. The guy was also deaf and without instruments could feel the
engine when he set the timing.
