My brother-in-law has a G5 engine with the BLS, which, according to Porsche's service codes, is supposed to have a longer lifespan.

Interestingly, the vehicle always needs servicing after exactly 15,000 km – and this is the second time (so a total of 30,000 km).

And with the EZ 11/07 model, it's "more of a long-distance vehicle."

Can I tell if that's good just by looking at it?

I don't know what the f*ck it was.

I checked the settings on my 3C. It definitely has the Longlife setting enabled.

Now I just have to wait until I can play golf again...

Thank you for the tip.

You can also check channel 45 in the control panel settings. If it displays a "1", it's not a long-life product. Anything above "1" indicates a long-life product.
