Transmission problems
Mark A Taylor replied to Mark A Taylor's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Gday .. I have seen Alex Zanardi and think he is terrific but I saw a photo of him a while ago and he had a motorised wheel attached to the front of his wheelchair .. I dont know what to make of it so I dont judge .. that is to say its something I would never do as I have to good arms which allow me to push and control the chair any thing less is laziness ... Im thinking about what you said .. maybe .. Lack of Fluid .. Kickdown adjustment or associated .. Or TCU ?????? i shall continue to investigate Thanks Marcus -

I purchased the vehicle 2nd hand and do not know if the fluid has ever been changed .. I have not driven the vehicle yet ( Im in a wheelchair and as yet have not fitted a set of hand controls ) .. my mate drove it home and he said that it was fluctuating between 4th and 5th but other than that it drove very smoothly .. and he did not drive it manually -
Gday .. I have a 2004 Porsche Boxster 986S and am having Transmission problems .. When im driving down the highway the transmission fluctuates between 4th and 5th gears .. A mechanic said that it is the Transmission Control Unit .. but another said that was unlikely .. anybody have any ideas ??? Thanks Marcus
