Thursday I drove my '03 S to work, a 60 mile drive. On the way home the light in the temperature gauge started blinking, indicating low coolant. Got home and added about 3 quarts of distilled water. Sunday it will get flat bedded to my indie Porsche specialist. I already had an appointment for an oil change, brake fluid flush and HPDE tech inspection, so the cooling system will get looked at too. I had my water pump replaced 4-1/2 years and 24,000 miles ago, I'll be disappointed if that's what went. Along with the oil change and brake fluid flush, I'm adding a Mantis sump, stainless steel flexible brake lines and an underdrive pulley.

Today I pulled the front bumper and wheel well liners, cleaned out my radiators and ducts, and replaced my low note horn which had gone. Also put my 18 inch wheels on to get ready for my upcoming HPDE. Tomorrow the Brey Krause rollbar extension goes on. After that and the service on Monday, I hope to just wash it and drive it!

Put it into DD service this week 120 km round trip to work. Inspected the rear brakes,washed the car, cleaned the exhaust tips, touched up a paint chip, booked a coolant change and cv boot replacement service, ran errands and picked up 5 feet of square tubing for a garage project
