you could ask the mechanic if the trans oil change is included with the clutch job, if you've committed to doing it. Also, Porsche gear oil is extremely expensive here in Canada and the USA. Motul has a line of 'ester' derived oil which is supposed to be superior to Mobil 1's synthetic oil and may be more affordable. As you may know, the dual mass flywheel could need replacement and will at least, double the cost of the clutch job parts. How about the IMS bearing?
