Questions About 2008 Porsche 911’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Porsche? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Porsche tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your 911 towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • How often does my 911 transmission fluid need to be checked? Caring for your Porsche 911’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Porsche, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Porsche 911 transmission fluid leak? Yes. Porsche 911 transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.

You might even experience transmission failure.
