For the Tip trans coolant bleeding, youll need to just add all the coolant till it fills the reseviour and (boxster only) remove the plastic cover that sits on top of the oil filler and coolant cap in the trunk.

Pull the metal latch under the cover and leaving pointing upwards. Add more coolant cause it'll probably suck down more when lifting that valve open i just mentioned.

Once full, start engine, turn heater to full blast, No A/C. give it 2 quick revs up to 4k rpm and then add more coolant cause it'll such some more in... keep doing that until the coolant level doesnt drop after reving. Flip down that valve and reinstall the cover and install your coolant cap and go for a drive and after about 15 minute drive add more coolant as needed.
