Erik, compelling argument about the cold starts. I will stick with the heavier fluid. Thank you!

Wow....

Oil is cheap, transmissions are expensive.


You bought a freaking Porsche.


Just invest in the Porsche oil.


In all the time you have been trolling forums and researching formulations and tracking down which Shell formula matches the “secret” Porsche fluid, you could have just bought the Porsche fluid and changed your oil, and attended three track day events or driven to the Rocky Mountains and had a great vacation.


Get busy livin’.


Or buy a Honda and save money.


Maybe you just bought the wrong car for your budget.
