How often do you check your power steering level? Both of my 987Ss don't leak but are always a titch low on fluid. Ignore the resevoir and get ready for an expensive repair. I always check the level in my Cayman before doing a DE. Thankfully it's very easy to get to the top of the engine on a Cayman.

How often do you change your engine air filter? Hopefully it's not one of those K&N style filters that needs oiling to keep it working. Not oiling it means dirt is going directly into your engine. Personally, I'd change it back to a factory paper filter, but that's just me.

Service mode and removing speakers, etc, doesn't make it easy to get to the top of a Boxster engine. And now that I've typed this up, I think I need to go check my PS level in my Box.
