Are you sure they replaced the original tranmission..

at 5K?

I ask since it seems pretty amazing that two different Porsche trannies would fail with in 20K miles. I say that because I have not not seen any other reports of faiures with this transmission on either the 997 or 987 or Cayman boards.

Which makes me wonder if there was a transmission replacement; sounds more like it might have ben opened up, worked on and then put out back together. Two similar failures in two different transmissions sounds odd as heck. Was there a significant difference in the shift feel when you got the new tranny? I would think the linkage would be stiffer compared with a unit with XK miles on it.
