Hi,

I have both the Factory Service Manual Set and the Bentley Manual. They compliment each other quite well. The Factory Set assumes you went to Porsche School, so in many cases it's not that informative. The Bentley Manual assumes you didn't go to Porsche School and so, in many cases, is not that informative. But combined, they do a good job of filling in each other's gaps.

A bit of an investment, but if they allow you to skip just a couple trips to the Dealer, they pay for themselves...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Thank you for the info, MNBoxster. I just purchased the bently manual from amazon, should be here in a week :-) ... Until then, can someone tell me where the hydraulic fluid reservoir is located? I havn't noticed any leaking so far, but I am going to let it set in the garage today and keep an eye on it.

It's the brake fluid reservoir in the front trunk. The two systems are together for filling, but separated after the reservoir.

If it stuck then later popped back up, it's more likely a mechanical problem with the disc sliding on the drive shaft. Sounds more like a bad release bearing or lack of moly grease on the disc where it slides on the drive shaft than a bubble or lost fluid. If you're losing fluid or have a bubble in the system, I've never heard of it curing itself suddenly. Lost fluid usually requires you manually pulling the pedal up to refill the cylinders to work and the bubble doesn't go away until the system is bled.

Hope you find it and it's an easy one.
