Welcome to the forum & wonderfull world of Boxstering!

1. If that's all you found in the filter nothing to worry about. You need to cut it open for full inspection. After 1000 miles just remove the filter & inspect. If you find any metal, then cut the filter for full inspection, if ok reinstall intact. You will lose 1/2 qt. oil.
2. You probably have P/S fluid on top of engine from the short vent hose. Extend the hose to below the engine. Top up P/S fluid with Pentosion. I answered your other thread.
3. 6-speeds are great trans., except for the 2nd gear issue. Call CA Motorsport in AZ to discuss your options.
4,5,6,7. Never had any top problems,so don't know.
8. These are delicate & problematic. May need to remove panel search forum for DIY.
9,10. Go to best Upholstery shop in town.
11. the fabric helps guide the top & keeps foreign objects out of hinges.

I bet you don't feel a day over 60 while driving the Box! :dance:
