Hi guys, looking for some advice. I'm a VERY recent Boxster owner, 2001 2.7. I've had it for two months and a slight leak under the engine has just appeared. Nothing major, just small damp patch on garage floor. I took it to a local mechanic this morning and he says it's coming from the crankshaft/flywheel area? He also told me that he wouldn't even attempt to repair it as it's beyond his capability... That got me scared
I'm not technically minded at all so my questions are these:
1) Is that the IMS/RMS that I read so much about?
2) The mechanic has suggested adding Stop Leak which 'might' work - is that a good idea or will that make it worse in any way?
3) Is the car drivable (only to get it to a more specialised mechanic 5 miles away)?
Really spoiled my day
Trying to save for a wedding in 10 months and the last thing I need is a huge bill...
Any thoughts or suggestions much appreciated
Pete
