I just got into the office and my car after 400 miles already has one bar open below the line... I think our cars like Mobil 1 0-40 right?? I know I used 0-40 for my 997.1 but wanted to confirm here real quick.

Thanks.

0W-40...but one bar down is OK - 1 bar = 0.4 liter = less than 5% of capacity. If you decide to add, don't add more than 0.4l at a time.

Thanks for the quick response and the extra info... I never knew the exact amounts per bar- much appreciated.
