I just put the shark up on stands to refill the tranny fluid. when i went to look at the fill point. the plastic thing with the red cap. The back half was broken off. no wonder it wouldn't shift into gear. The question is where to i find a replacement, how fast can i get it and how the hell do i change it??? thx in adavance.

Cheers,
Nic

Bottom front of unit unscrews from Pipe going into trans pan. then I believe it is bolted on side of transmission with 2 bolts, I will have to look at manual.

Give me a call and ill get you the manual pages you need today.

Transmission Reservoir Removal:

Hi Smurf,

On mine, there is a right angle piece of sheet metal cover. It covers the bottom and outside of the reservoir. It is held on by allen head screws. Remove that. There is a plastic union nut that screws over a pipe that goes into the transmission. Unscrew that. There may or may not be another allen head bolt holding on the reservoir. It has been a while. Then just pull the reservoir off of the pipe toward the passenger side.

Danger Wil Robinson,... Clean the pipe area first so dirt does not fall into the pipe. Even a tiny amount of dirt can ruin a transmission. Indeed, change the filter, gasket, and fluid. I like Mobil 1 synthetic.

Wally is giving you good advice, so I would call Jeannie or Dave at 928 Specialists for the parts. Just make sure Jeannie can get the reservoir through her express Porsche supplier within a few days. If she has to get it from Stuttgart, call one of the other Big 3.
