Hi All,

thought i should post a quick message for general info.

The gear changes have been getting less delicate, esp at low speeds around town, fine when cold.

Car is nearly six but only on 25k miles.

I therefore booked it in for a PDK service and transfer box oil change; all now runs perfectly.

PDK service was £350 and Transfer box £52.

Every Porsche i've owned seems to like regular gearbox oil changes.

Next time it goes clunky try the PDK reset process yourself rather than taking it into the OPC.

Tried that a month ago and it made no difference.
