Porsche 718 Cayman (982 Chassis) Oil Change + ECU Reset Tutorial

Porsche 718 Cayman (982 Chassis) Oil Change + ECU Reset Tutorial

I walk you guys through changing the oil on a 718 Cayman S. This 982 chassis Cayman oil change is a perfect example of the process of changing the oil on 718 models from the base Cayman, Cayman S, and 2.5L Cayman GTS . I am not saying that this is the best way to do it but it’s just a video of me doing what I do and it seems to work for me. Let me know what you guys think of the video and what you learned. Maybe you all can teach me a thing or two.

If you enjoyed the video and found the information useful to you like and subscribe to this channel to stay up to date with my cayman and motivations I do to it.

“Made in Germany, made in Germany, made in Germany…” umm, there’s the oil filter way back there… What’s the fascination with German design and engineering? If you’re spilling oil all over the car’s under tray, that doesn’t sound like good engineering to me. How much oil did not make it into the crankcase last time??
If you want something self-serviceable and affordable to maintain, what the hell are you thinking in buying a Porsche?
To justify not changing an oil filter because you’ve ‘only’ put on 3000 miles since your last oil change is absurd – when are you going to have the energy and gumption to actually change the filter? You even admit that it was 3000 “hard miles.”
Reusing a crush washer? Crush washers are engineered to ‘crush.’ Once.
What is your reasoning for sanding the crush washer?
If your car is something so revered why would you want to cut corners with the maintenance, and then have documented proof of lax maintenance?
A car with no dipstick. Is that sound engineering?
If you’re looking for something that is cheap and easy to maintain, and will get you from A to B without a computer telling you (or not) that you’re low on oil maybe stick with a Japanese car (Mazda MX-5?) – I saw a Lexus and a Corolla in the background…
How much did the hydraulic lift, Race Ramps, and OBD scanner cost?
The resale value of your Porsche (or any “premium” car) plummets when not properly maintained, so maybe the dealerships $700 oil change isn’t so bad after all.
I feel like an old curmudgeon right about now.

Great video. I’ve a 2022 718 S (599 miles) so not really for an oil change yet. Just a quick question — what was the source of the excess oil on the pans underneath the car? Thanks!
