Hi,

The best Manual Transmission Oil I have ever used is Red Line MT90. It meets the requirements by Porsche and makes the tranny shift smoother and run quieter. You'll need 2.4 US Qts. for the 5-Speed and 3.0 US Qts. for the 6-speed.
I have seen it sold for as much as $29.00/Qt., but this place sells it for under $9 - http://solotime.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=53 Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
