Hello, I've looked through old threads and found some helpful troubleshooting procedures, but wanted to ask before I start ordering parts-

For nearly everything I've needed to know, searching old threads gets me the knowledge I need to keep the car running. I figure it would be unnecessary to bump those old posts just to let everyone...

I do the suction method oil change on my other cars, but with all the history of the Boxster engine I want to be able to get a better look at the oil. Can't do that thoroughly enough without looking...

Thanks clickman, I'll let it be for a few tanks to get a feel for any changes and then might try that next.

RL911, yes I did, but I hadn't been doing that before, and it hadn't been having trouble...

Replaced fuel filler valve, what next?

Hello all, I noticed for the last few months that my car was becoming reluctant to fill the tank, seemed like I was getting to 3/4 on the gauge at best. Some searching here led me to think the fuel...

I didn't use them, I think they're for cars that have bulb out warnings for the driver. If the computer doesn't see load within some spec for the original type of bulb, then it might throw a warning...

Thank you again, I think I found at least one example of exactly what you're talking about- if the photo loaded properly, that's exactly the look of the gaskets I received.

Thank you, I suppose I should have looked that up before doing the work- I ordered 4x of this part number from Pelican, and they came with a gasket like I described. Of course they're not mentioned...

An amp can definitely be set so that it doesn't blow out the speakers, but that means restricting the power- there's not much point in getting a huge amp if you have to turn it way down. I don't...
