Boxster S got me scared....

Hey guy and gals,

Loving the forum, some great info!

Today I decided to try and change my fuel filter, which turns out to be built into the fuel tank.

Anyway it turns out there is or has been a slight oil leak, it looks like it coming from the AOS there is some fresh-is oil on a cable below it along with some older dried up oil.**** The more worrying bit is the dried up and semi fresh oil on the mouthing between the engine and gear box at the bottom.






Any opinions on what it could be? Have cleaned it up so will keep an eye on it, really hope it's not the dreaded IMS!

There is a little bit of grinding when pulling away or changing gear between first, second and third.

It's a 2002, S with 57000mile on the clock.

Thanks
986Newbie!
