Overall service intervals
As a general rule, Porsche recommends basic service every 10,000 miles or after one year, whichever comes first. Porsche also recommends replacing the spark plugs every 30,000 miles for optimum maintenance. With that as your foundation, Porsche recommends major service at intervals of 40,000 miles. That means you will be visiting us for major service on your Porsche Macan at 40,000 miles, 80,000 miles, 120,000 miles, 160,000 miles and beyond.
Regular oil changes are the basic building block of Macan maintenance
The most fundamental service task we can perform for your Porsche Macan is to have us replace your motor oil and filter every 10,000 miles. The reason, of course, is that your Porsche engine is the centerpiece of your Macan's operation. It's performing with hundreds of intricate precision parts, many moving at high speeds and some coming into frequent contact with each other. All that movement creates friction that can lead to early wear-out.
There are cases where an oil change should occur more often
It might be important to bring your Porsche Macan to us at McKenna Porsche more frequently, based on your unique driving style. For example, if you spend a lot of time driving your Macan through the streets of Los Angeles, racking up a lot of stop-and-go city miles, that kind of driving can be hard on a highly-engineered Porsche Macan engine. The solution might be more frequent maintenance so ask us about the right intervals for your Macan.
Here are the services we perform for you every 10,000 miles
At McKenna Porsche, the Porsche factory-trained technicians in our service center will be glad to check your Porsche Macan's electric system, specifically examining electrical equipment that includes warning lights and turn signal indicators as well as the operation of your horn. We can also check the inside of your vehicle including your seat belts while replacing your pollen filter. In addition, we can check components outside the cabin like your radiator and air intakes.
We can also check vital safety components like your tires. We'll check on the tread depth and see if the wear patterns are even. We will also do a visual inspection of the underside looking for signs of any oil or fluid leaks. We can conduct a visual inspection of your brake pads and discs for signs of wear.
Additional services we can provide
On the outside of your Porsche Macan, we can clean the reversing camera lens to make sure you're driving safely when you back out of a parking spot at the mall or conduct parallel parking downtown. We will also be glad to adjust your headlights, check your trailer hitch, take a good look at your firewall, your lift-gate and check your sunroof for any signs of blockage or debris. If your windshield wiper nozzles need adjusting, we'll take care of it.
We can provide you with a comprehensive regular maintenance schedule so you can be aware of the right times to bring your Porsche Macan in to us for the service it needs. We look forward to seeing you soon at McKenna Porsche in Norwalk CA.
