Re: Trans oil: Stick with the Porsche oil. I did Mobil 1 75W90 last year and it was a disaster. I was double clutching 2nd gear for the first 20 minutes and shifting across the entire range was difficult. Went back to the Porsche oil and it was night and day.

I need to do this soon, from what I have read most are using Swepco 201 Gear Oil, 80/90 for their 6S gear box. About 65 bucks for a gallon container
