You will find, unless your trans is cooked, your new oil will be fine. No need for any funky flushes or whatever. Things that can effect shifting are the shifter itself, very worn out if original. Motor mounts, same as shifter. Possible shift cables and linkage. Porsche trannies are notchy, they always have been. They are not designed to blast through the gears. If you are experiencing balk, or second gear pop, you have other issues that fluid my help initially but will need to be addressed at some point.

Keep in mind too that you need to remove the lower pan to get to the drain plug. The crossmember bolts can a be a bugger to get lined back up. A lift is VERY helpful when messing with that sucker.
