Thanks, jmatta. I'm not looking to cut costs, though. Like I said, I'm just trying to cool this car down as much as possible and was seeing if there was any benefit from other coolants. When I can stand next to my car's right side intake to keep warm on a very cool and windy fall night even a few hours after it's been sitting in a parking space, to me that's hot in a bad way, and that's with the car operating normally.

penny wise pound foolish

As you know the saying goes penny wise pound foolish...

I've been running Royal Purple for 2 weeks now and when the tranny is warm I like the shifting but when it's cold outside <40 degrees, it isn't any better than what I had so next I'll order some official Porsche tranny fluid and flush it again. Just trying to solve cold shift issues - get's hard to put in gear for the first 2 minutes.

Thanks,
-Steve
