Time for 100k Maintenance

crazyboy · April 19th, 2013, 10:35 PM

Hi,

My Boxtser S 2001 is about to hit 93k km and feels like it needs some maintenance, I read in the maintenance manual I should change the Air Filter, Gas Filter and Spark Plugs.

Any suggestions as to what brand I should look for, should I get K&N air filter, porsche spark plugs or change anything else?

Thx!

Greetings crazyboy,

Although you are right under the 100K Km / 60K miles threshold -- you also need to take in consideration that your 2001 Boxster is 12 years old. Therefore, you need to look at not only the 100K Km Maintenance list, but look at next 1 or 2 Maintenance interval lists above 100K Km.

Below, I added an older maintenance link provided by Mike Focke a few years ago. Mike provided tremendous info over the years, and Pedro's Garage is a great link as well for maintenance. Use the Search function, and type in Maintenance, and you can also type in Mike Focke, and Pedro, etc,.
