Yeah, you sure did make a boo boo by buying that car without a PPI and asking for all the books, keys and toolkit!
Books - Ebay has them for sale; Probably the ones from your very car!
Toolkit - Ebay once again, but far more rare. Sunset in Oregon sells them cheaper than anyone.
Keys: My friend, bend over. You should prepare yourself for a rape without a kiss. Keys are expensive and the used keys on Ebay are TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY WORTHLESS unless they have the hang-tag with the barcode on it for programming. Buy a key head and key blank from Sunset and take it to your local dealer for programming to your car.
Hey, check your car for a coolant tank leak. Take up the carpet and wood base in your rear trunk and look for fluid. These are notorious for leaking. Window regulators go out a lot too...ask the wife to sit in the car with the top up and operate the windows up and down a few times while you stand outside and watch the top of the window as it approaches the top. It should seat with the rubber frame at the top at the same time and not be crooked. It should also drop a 1/4 of an inch when the door is opened and then rise the same a second after closing the door.
There's other stuff you should inspect, but most are self-revealing.
Hey, on the RMS, it's just some forum gossip I heard, but you may want to research using a RMS from a Cayenne as they don't leak as much in the future.
