How much she saved by changing the oil herself

Unless you’re a very highly paid specialist, there are some things that supercar owners don’t even attempt to DIY because they don’t want to risk their precious cars.

Even for something as apparently simple as an oil change, a lot of Porsche owners would fear trying to do it themselves in case they messed up. Understandably.

But Whitney from Whitney’s Garage on TikTok showed that it’s nothing to be scared of.

Her husband’s Porsche 911 has never driven better

The Utah content creator’s video quickly went viral, with gearheads from all over the world being impressed by how easily she sorted the oil change.

One comment on Reddit said he ‘took my Cayman to the dealer for 40k service and they wanted 2k$ for an oil change spark plugs and an air filter’ showing how much she potentially saved.

“[A] dealer would charge at least $400, an indie shop maybe $250. She paid for the oil and filter, which is what, $80?” another wrote.

If anything, Whitney’s video shows how financially beneficial it can be to work on your own vehicles… but only if you have experience.
