porsche addict

Hi there,

My name is philip. I have a small workshop as second occupation for over 30 years now. Mosty Italian vehicles. (fiat alfa romeo and lancia) 4 years ago I went out of my comfort zone with the porsche boxster i bought. I'ts a 2.7 986 from 2000 with 252 000 km (today 276000 km) My small official workshop allows me te create verry interesting relations with other professionals, so I'm always interested is advice, support, assistance and willing to return the favour. Bought a broken 986 2.7 to study the concept. Broken piston they said. Cut open oil filter can be used as Christmass decoration ! One of the pistons is totaly shatered including the connecting rod. Metal shavings everywhere ! Some bent valves. But what I don"t get is the large amount of metal shavings in the plastic intake manifold !?

Ims looks new and feels great ! Can annyone explain me what went wrong ?

Regards,

Phill
