ok just to clarify where i was coming from with the "engine design" I wasnt saying that the Boxer Designed engines were faulty. I was saying that the PORSCHE Designed Boxer motor was faulty. There seems to be a consistency in it being replaced in the earlier versions more than the newer ones. Now from what i do know the RMS finally has a complete fix. Talked to the service tech here in my dealership and he said they have finally got a seal that hasnt leaked out oil after being being replaced. Which is good news because its not fun to throw away 1k every year for a new rms seal replacement. Also the new engine in the 05-06 has been redesigned a little bit and should fix the rest of the problems. Hince the wider rear body, but we will find out as the years go on.
