Boxster S Coolant pipes on 2.5
Has anyone installed Boxster S coolant pipes in their base 2.5?
If so does anyone know exactly which parts are needed? Thanks! |
Here... Let me teach you to fish:

I had some tubes out today and took the opportunity for a picture. Without looking at the parts diagram, it looks like the hose to/from the engine is the same.

Wow! As you often just work on one part of a system, you don't always realize or appreciate that there is a deliberate design to the whole system. Those pictures really emphasize the complexity and, to be honest, the elegance of the design. Thank you for the images.

I just noticed some liquid coming from what seems the middle of the car immediately on start up. From the looks of the pics of the pipe system you posted it looks unlikely that the liquid is really coming from the center due to the middle of the car is actually metal pipe. Looks like I will need to get it up in the air and take the panels off to actually see where the leak is. So thank you very much for posting the pics. :cheers:

Yes i agree. I definitely need to get it up on the Quickjack, take the bottom panels off and find the leak.

Well i think I found the leak. Please note this is on my original 986 that I haven't been driving this year.
I was going over the car getting it ready for winter storage. I only have a 1 bay garage so this car will need to stay out side under a cover. I have a lot of little leaves that fall of the tree so I wanted to make sure all the drains were clear. The front drain on the drivers side near the battery was plugged. There was a lot of water trapped there. So much so that when I moved the car last week and saw liquid running out of the bottom of the car I now think it was at such an angle that the water was running out of a high spot on the wall with a missing grommet. It actually didn't seem like coolant when I checked it on the ground, but figured it must be. So the drain has since been cleared and hopefully when I start it back up in the spring there will be no water running out, so therefore no problem. |
