Post Service requirements 2001 boxster S

Hello to all. Does anyony have a complete list of fluid requirements for servicing the vehicle. There seems to be a lot of opinions on what to use on what.
The transmission ATF type?, and rear oil ?.......
The engine oil 0-40 , 10-40 , 15-50?
Brake fluid, anti freeze and so on. I want the manual but egads. I cant even afford the car and have always had to do the maintenance myself on everything we have ever had. So, and suggestions and advice on how to do these things will be greatly appreciated. <img src="graemlins/wave.gif" border="0" alt="[byebye]" />

All of this information is in your owners manual. Did you look in the trunk(s) for it?

Also, you might get more responses on the Boxster forum (this is the 996 forum and Boxsters are 986s). Some kind Boxster owner may be willing to copy the fluids page for you

I would suggest having the services(which are either annual or at every 15,000 miles) done at the dealer because of warranty issues, etc. I would hate to hear a warranty claim denied because of lack of proof that the car was servived.
