Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

O wow thats great and it sounds like it's in line with what i thought in terms of gearbox oil being low and running hot. I'll certainly contact local Porsche centre and ask them about temperature.

Would you know where I can get the right gearbox oil for this car (except from Porsche). Lots of forums talk about ensuring to get the EXACT right oil for the Tiptronic gearbox as they are sensitive. Alternatively as most people will be replying from the states, what brand/viscosity would be best?

Mine is a 2004 Boxster Tiptronic S.
