When using M mode you can switch gears using the steering wheel buttons however the dashboard still blinks 'D'. All gears shift correctly at the right RPM in both manual and auto mode.

Using a diag tool, when trying 70mph on the motorway the tiptronic temperature is reading 196F, is this too hot??

Please be advised that the multi function switch solved the fault in the system and PST no longer shows any fault in the tip (p708)
Have you read your manual? My manual, for my '99 Boxster, says that a blinking "D" light means the trans needs to be serviced i.e. new fluid and filter. I don't know if the temp of the fluid is too hot, you might call your local dealer and ask the service manager that question.
