I just had a friend that sold his wife's 2007 Boxster S. They purchased new and she never drove it. 8000 miles in 5 years! I don't get it. I bought my 2002 S a year ago from an old man that had...

It's not just Porsche that hides and denies common design problems. My Jeep Wrangler just surprised me with the dreaded "death wobble". It is a known problem with Jeep and dodge trucks but they...

Ok, you all have convinced me that i need to personalize so help me come up with some clever plate. There are the obvious ones, BOXSTER, 02 986, any others? I like JD's, it is a classic.

Personalized or not?

Sometimes I wish my Boxster had a personalized plate. How many of you have something descriptive about your ride so those from behind will have to notice? I think I would do something with 986 in...

Have to agree with above post. Mine has no cover and at first I thought previous owner had ripped it off or something but now I believe it came that way.

Black ones! :) Just kidding, Pilot Super Sports for my S. I haven't tried anything else so I have no opinion. The Michelins seem like great tires and I have 5000 miles on a new set.

Does anyone have data that would support how sound the LN bearing is? When/if they fail does it toast the engine too? Until I knew the answers to those questions I still would drive everyday...

I'm with Meat Head. That's how I do it with all my vehicles. The theory is common sense to me. I always end up pouring in the exact amount of new oil that is recommended. Just my 2$ worth.

Congrats! I would do it in a heartbeat if my wallet allowed me. Maybe in 9 or 8 or 6 years I will make the jump. I love the way they look. Thanks for the post and yes, I am jealous.

Are these cars just prone to leaking freon, because I have had other cars for 20 years and they still blow cold air having never been recharged?

Thanks for the help. I don't know any indies here so I guess the dealer will have a look. I hate giving them my money but I don't have experience in this area.

You are right. I last used it in the fall and it as blowing really cold then so that's why I'm baffled. Seems strange to go from perfect to terrible so fast.

Went with the top up today and turned on the air conditioner. I could tell the compressor kicked on but it only blows hot air. I don't know a thing about this system so I thought I'd toss it out to...
