1998 Boxster purchased used with 90,000 miles. It ran good for 10,000 miles than BOOM. Catastophic engine failure. Still no RMS. LOL

RMS info and suggestions.

Here's a link to another forum with useful information on the subject. Also, below that is the link to my project car's thread. Please read up on both and digest with your mind.

Unusual, but my '97 986 . . .

suffered a FRONT main seal leak. More of seap, but oil was running back underneath the engine so I had my Porsche dealer replace that seal 2 years ago and since then, it's been bone dry. RMS remains bone dry.
