Sorry! first time posting, I'm just a lurker. I drive a 1999 Boxster Base 5spd MT

But I agree, it is a surefire way of diagnosing. I just don't have a jack at my disposal as it's all back home. won't make that mistake again

I was curious if anyone had similar experiences that involved failure outside of wheel bearing. Otherwise, it's looking like I'm borrowing a shop lift for a weekend.
