It's not markedly different from the early ones. The only hard part is the amount of effort required to yank the snorkel out.

The IMS is a problem up until 2009 so both cars are roughly equivalent.

I was just coming in the house to change my estimate! I looked at my front pads and could tell there was a good 10mm on them.

I'd say what you want to do is go out and measure your remaining pad...

Find a new dealer. $3k to repair brake pads should be a hangable offence. I would estimate new pads have about 8mm or so in them.

The $116 part is a front control arm, not a rear, so that's one reason.

Viper, you have the exact symptoms I have. I just purchased a new battery today, and I predict you will be doing the same very shortly.

I lost the rear end of a non-PSM '97 Boxster going quite slowly in a hairpin in Tasmania. It's certainly easy enough to do if the road is slick (which this one was) and if you apply the power a bit...

Open the bonnet, open the washer fluid container, pour the fluid in. The washer container lid is blue. There ain't much more to it than that.

That's riding incredibly high for an M030... not sure if it's the 17" wheels or the fact that the suspension hasn't run in yet.

No, I don't see how that would be possible. All they do is plug into the OBD port.

Your issue is (IMO) unrelated.

Oh, I really shouldn't have come to the forum now. I want nothing more than to go for a drive but I'm waiting on replacement rotors to arrive. MY LIFE IS PAIN!

I agree. Also, without the curve at the bottom of the headlights the lines no longer make any sense. I would have left it amber as well, but it's not my car. :rolleyes:

Given that your mobile phone bill will show calls to the mechanic over several days (corroborating your story), I don't understand why you're not calling your lawyer.

I got my car in Dec '11, and up until last week I'd spent:

Wind deflector clips and mounting kit - about $50.
Replacement catalytic converter clip - $20
Air filter, serpentine belt, cabin air...

I feel like my '03 is still not tracking as well as I would expect either. Thing is, the front Pirellis are from 2006, even though they have plenty of tread on them. I suspect that once I replace all...

Not Porsche-like?? Are you mad?

The Boxster front end is the closest thing to the Carrera GT the company has yet produced. IMHO.

Yes, this is exactly correct. The fact that it's the combination I have is coincidental.
