Hope the Motul works as well for you as it does for me.

I'd like to use the OEM fluid, which from what I understand is rebranded Shell Spirax. Of course from the dealer it's expensive, but I'm having trouble finding anywhere that sells the Shell oil. Anyone buy any recently at a decent price?

After looking around, I finally ordered the Porsche oil from ECS Tuning. Their price was about $30 a liter. Sonnen actually had it cheaper at about $25 a liter. However, after I placed my order online, they called and said something about not having the proper MSDS license to ship. Interesting to note that they suggested I use Swepco. My dealer wanted about $42 a liter. Not surprisingly, their quote to have the tech do the tranny and front diff was quite high.
