Oil transmission

I have a 997 2005.

Do you use synthetic oil for your transmission?

If so, which one do you use?

Thank you!

Julien

The factory fill, which is a full synthetic.

There's a big post about this on another forum. The consensus (to which I subscribe based on first hand experience) is to use Mobil PTX, which is the factory oil - - Note: not all dealerships apparently use it. In my (and others) experience, it fixed the difficult 1st gear synchro issue. Good luck.
