Also, you should closely inspect the fork lever for metal fatigue since you mentioned that some of the fingers are more worn than others...
The fork lever is the newer style, quite thick metal. I took it out, pressure washed it and inspected it. Looks like new.

Good stuff Gelbster and JFP, I like easy testing and understanding the DMF's function and how it works...cool.

DMF noises seem to be the most obvious clue of a worn out DMF without taking anything apart. Good to know.
Mine is quiet so we will see how the test turns out.

Glebster, you must have a Yellow Boxster based on your username?
