That, and the ball joints are DRY bearings. Use the wd40.

How difficult is it to access the bearings??

Novice here - only done some minor projects.

thanks.

very easy. turn your steering wheel all the way to the side. behind the wheel, look for the part in the picture. cut a tiny slice with an exacto knife where i've highlighted in red. put the WD40 spray tube into the slice & give it a good squirt. go for a drive so the WD40 gets evenly distributed & cleans out the nylon.

Thanks much for the help.

Appreciated!

Newbie question (apologies) : Any chance of a pic / description where the ball joint is?

As my first project with the new (2000) boxster - I have taken a look but struggling to spot it. . .

Any help appreciated!

turn your steering wheel all the way right. look behind the left wheel down low. you will see a control arm that connects the wheel to the car. the ball joint will be at the outermost point of this control arm.
