997 manual gear oil change question

My 2008 Carrera S is reaching 30k miles and I like to change its manual gearbox oil. I did some research and it appears that 3 quarts of Mobil Delvac Synthetic Gear Oil 75W-90 should do the job. I wonder if this is correct?

just buy a gallon, believe it takers just over 3 qts. I changed mine recently, not too hard, just takes a little time. Take the fill plug out first in case the bottom plug doesent..
I used swepco, no difference from stock fill IMHO
