911 Turbo Cabriolet (996) F6-3.6L Turbo (2004)
General remarks on hydraulic system
The hydraulic system is sensitive to ingress of dirt. As soon as the system is opened by the plug, a cloth must be placed under the hydraulic lines to catch
escaping hydraulic oil.
The hydraulic convertible top uses a closed hydraulic system. In general, the hydraulic system will need filling only after opening the hydraulic circuit
(after parts replacement). Use only original Porsche hydraulic oil when changing or topping up hydraulic fluid.
