I appreciate everyone's input. Glad I'm not alone with these concerns. However, I suppose I'll just have to do the maintenance and take any problems as they come. Maybe I'll pick up the service...

I was curious as to everyone's thoughts here. This goes for not only Porsche, but all cars. I am a firm believer of the "if it ain't broke, don't ix it" philosophy. However, I do my routine...

You should be able to open the door manually with the key even with a dead battery. Obviously the window won't roll down though.

I had the same problem. I put a piece of medical tape over the hole and the sound vanished. No CEL, no issues whatsoever. Been driving for 2+ years that way.

Mine failed at around 58K. The impellers looked great and the pulley spun freely. It just started leaking heavily after a drive one day. No visible damage.

Hmm...I already have the WP off. May be worth while to replace the motor mount at this time if it's that beneficial. Thanks.

No, I hadn't removed the reservoir cap prior to the leak starting. It started leaking just after shutting off the engine after a 10-15 minute casual (non-spirited) drive.

No, I'm not positive it's the water pump. With how cramped things are back there I wouldn't be surprised if it's coming from somewhere else and dripping onto the water pump. I'll check the tank and...

No, I haven't started the car since I discovered the leak. The hoses looked okay to me but I didn't check the reservoir. I'll check it tomorrow morning. Thank you for your input.
