First thing I did when I bought mine was get it up on a buddies lift for a inspection by me. I did spend 6 months doing my research before purchase. Just picked up a cayman and its going on the lift in a few days. Get to know these cars or you might end up with a bill that breaks the bank.

My car goes through Johnson rods like crazy. They say it's because I leave the summer air in the tires throughout the winter, but I have my doubts.

Maybe it's time for another thread on the great benefits of running nitrogen!

It's ok to use the same air, but you do need to rotate it...

That normally causes my muffler bearings to go. Hmmm.
