I'll try playing with the RPMs - no idea how trans fluid level is, is there a dipstick on this car or just a fill hole?

Worthwhile to swap trans fluid at this mileage/year? I like redline products but I've heard to stay with the Porsche fluid in the trans...

It's balky downshifting from 3rd to 2nd, but normal short gear balkiness i'd say when you get into the lower gears.
