new boxster owner oil leak,help?????
 
hi guys new to the forum :dance: just got my first porsche a 2001 boxster 986 2.7 manual 72k.was my dads car and has sat i the drive the last ten years covering very little miles 3k to be exact, recently had new brakes all round rms seal replaced last year :confused:,i was originally planing to sell it but after MOTing it and a few runs here and there im falling in love with it i own an old skool xr3i and chasing rust is getting tiresome
the porsche is mint body wise but the IMS boogyman has me scared :ah:.it has very slight leak between the bellhousing of the gearbox and the block like 1 drip on the drive a day if i clean it up underneath it comes back after sitting a day or two although i do start it regular to keep battery charged does this sound like the ims or maybe rms wasnt done properly was done by a porsche specialist .Its always had this issue as mums always moaned about it marking the drive she did say it was a lot better after the rms was done but still leaked,sorry for the long post :eek:
