Air Conditioning Leak

I had the car at a Porsche dealership for the IMS/clutch work and asked them to charge the A/C. They said it has a leak but at that time, I had already spent enough money on the IMS work that I told...

Going from flat to metallic or black to dark grey would be fine as long as the painter carefully masks off the lines around the jambs and deck lids. We have to be happy with our cars so do whatever...

If you do a color change, are you going to do the door jams and trunks? Doing a true color change requires disassembly in order to get all the nooks and crannies. However, if you stick with black...

Definitely. I just put on shiny new rotors and freshly painted calipers so it deserves shiny wheels now.

I'd have to find the receipt but I think I spent around $400 for the coils, plugs, tubes, belts, etc. The total bill was more than that but I needed two O2 sensors as well. I was going to do it all...

On my '99 with just under 90,000 miles, all six coil packs were cracked and the spark plug tubes were leaking. So replacing the coil packs, plugs, and tubes is a smart thing even if it is running...

I just bled the brakes on my '99 after removing the calipers for paint. I bought the power bleeder and new speed bleeders. I guess in reality, you don't need speed bleeders if you are using the...

I had a chance to meet Jay last year, albeit only for about 5 minutes. He is exactly what everyone says he is, a super nice and down-to-Earth guy. I was disappointed in this video, I was really...

It depends on the year. On my 99 it is possible to have them reversed. The plugs are the same physical size but the wire connectors inside are keyed differently. So it’s possible to have them in the...

It seems odd that someone would do a clutch without addressing the IMS. But IMS aside, neither is probably not a bad price if they truly needs nothing. I paid 8K for a '99 last year, it was my...
