To be honest, I've used Mobil 1 for 20 years believing it was the best money could buy. I still use it in the engine - but not the transaxle.

I can't speak for the Swepco but I went back to the OEM Porsche lube and immediately the problems went away.

IMO, stay with the Porsche stuff - even if it's a few dollars more.
Exactly this same experience with Swepco.
