In the morning my boxster shifts a little notch y.
After about 15 miles it shifts very smooth.
I am using Redline 70/90w
Should I change the gear oil to something else.
It has about 10k on it.

I would try the Mobil-1 synthetic that I believe Porsche recommends. Everyone seems to have a different experience with transmission fluids, it's difficult to determine what is good for one person or another. Still, the synthetics seems to work well.

How old is your car? When did you last change your front motor mount? Shifting is much improved if you replace a worn mount.
