1999 Boxster - New Purchase Concerns
 

Hello All,

I'm in the process of purchasing a 1999 Boxster 2.5L stock with 80k miles and 5-spd.

During my inspection of the car I have noted a few issues of concern and would really like to hear from you about each of the following::

1) The car has a continuous, small pull to the right. I have taken it on roads with crowns and flat surfaces and the pull remains. There is an alignment scheduled for tomorrorow with an "Alignment Specialist".

Have any of you had a similar experience and if so, how did you resolve your problem?

2) There is a start-up chain rattle...It goes away immediately (I hope!) and then runs on a fairly even pulse. During my next car visit, we plan to perform the diagnostics.

Is there anything particular to the 2.5L I should pay particular attention to during this check?
A porsche scan tool/durametric will be used to perform this check.

I will be sure to let you know what I learn from these upcoming tests,

I will post pictures and video upon shrinking them to fit site requirements.

Thanks,
a
