John - I recently replaced the 2 transmission mounts on my 2000 Boxster. With the new mounts the shifter and clutch feel are both smoother, less "gritty", than before. At 12 years old your mounts (2 supporting the transmission, and the front one supporting the engine) may soon start to fail. The tell tale signs are: increased vibrations from the engine compartment especially when accelerating and decelerating, rougher feel in the shifter and clutch, and the seals leaking dark, viscous oil.
