Default transmission oil leak

First time Porsche owner. Any idea if this is serious? I've read in another forum that they had to replace the gearbox. Had mine cleaned. Will drive it around a check on a lifter in a few weeks. Mine is a 2006 C4S
with 14,000 kms only.

Here's the other thread. https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1383912

Thanks guys!

Welcome to the Porsche world. If you search for my previous posts, you'll see my posts in regards to the same leak on my 996.2. Both 996.2 and 997 are using the same tiptronic gearbox.
