To change the oil or not to change

So the factory recommendation is 1yr/10k miles. I last changed my oil on 3/23 at 35,646 miles. As of yesterday, I’m at 36,920 miles.

I drive it occasionally as you can see based on the mileage. But when I do drive it, it’s usually all city driving and wait for the oil temps to reach 180-200 before hammering on it.

My question is, should I prep the car for winter storage and then change the oil in the spring like I planned to, or should I change it now?

Car is 997.2 Turbo

Be nice. Seriously. This is a place for fans of Porsche to talk about things. We need to pretend this is a cars and coffee meet or something where we’re all civilized people. We have the same passion.
