Expensive week and a half...... - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

The key to continued good luck is not to have the Boxster as your only car for 12 years or more. My expenses have been nearly $14k in the last 2 years alone. Not including the IMS,flywheel,clutch doozy, consumables and some mucho pricey upgrades. Got a whistle form a girl yesterday though so I guess that makes it okay..

If you don't mind me asking, what were the symptoms (if any) that lead up to you replacing the sending unit?

There was a smell of gas in the car when stopped. It was not there when driving. When I got out of the car after driving I could smell it outside as well. Particularly strong by the passenger wheel well, and in the frunk when opened.
