I notice a sort of muffled rattle or knocking over bumps when the car is cold (as in, just started it up and driving a few miles), but it doesn't sound metallic. It almost sounds to me like it could...

You may also want to consider having the front bumper repainted, even if it's inexpensively done. Regardless of the mileage and expected wear and tear, people generally don't want to read that the...

I assume you mean '05 987? Regardless, yes, $900 is very steep for an oil change, brake flush, and "check up". That pricing sounds more in line with what a typical major service would run from a...

So can anyone confirm that the part number listed here is the correct one for the passenger side clip? I may need to pick one up, and I'm hoping to avoid confusion at the dealer.

I don't have a problem with the length of the throws as much as with the generally looseness and free play of the shifter. Is there any sort of bushing or other upgrade that installs along with the...

Thanks for the input. I'm not necessarily stuck on steel, I just assumed it would be the least expensive and most durable option for a winter setup. It seems that most people simply go with an OEM...

Steel wheels?

This is a pretty basic question, but my searching hasn't turned up much. Are there any OEM 16" steel wheels that will properly fit the 986? Is it possible to use equal sized front and rear...

I'm curious, if it's possible to have a compression test as part of a $200-$350 PPI, why is it typically so expensive to have the plugs changed as part of the 30,000 service?
