Read evidence and context
Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.
0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.
Suggestion
when you say replace detent before too late, what happens if the old detent degrades?

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I just bought some gear lube to replace in my 2003 996 C4S manual transmission. The dealer sold me
000.043.305.49 litre bottle. He said it was a new part number. Is this the correct gear lube for my trans and front diff? It looks pretty thin.
thanks
Glenn
In the Boxster S ,the Getrag G86-20 6 speed gearbox/transaxle(similar to yours) , the specified oil is :
Shell Spirax S5 75W-90

The problem is that it is only available in very large drums.
Some suggest that Swepco make an acceptable substitute if you can deal with the higher viscosity (cold shifting problem)but that is a separate discussion.
You should also consider installing a 2nd gear detent before it is too late?

Did my dealer sell me the correct stuff? 000.043.203.37 one liter bottles
said it was a newly superseded and is equivalent to
999.917.546.00
I have the gear lube, want to change it this weekend, anyone have access to a dealership that can answer this question?
thanks
Glenn
