Hard to tell from your videos. and I am definitely no expert, but the random knocking sound seems like cam chain tension or a drive belt pulley bearing. From what I have read about IMSB, it would...

Open house at the P car dealer for the local PCA chapter on Sunday. Drove up with the top down in the freezing cold. Looked at the new Boxsters and the new Cayman. It was a mistake.

I know many here talk about the importance of the PPI and I agree it's a good idea, but that said I didn't get one on my 03S when I bought it. The car had a full service history and drove like a...

There is a GT3 console delete part that lets you remove the bins and gives big guys like me knee room. It's an ideal place to mount a GPS.

Well yesterday actually, took it out for its monthly spin. Warmed it up, charge the battery, roll the tires, "blow out the carbon". Today, big winter storm....again.

Up heah in Maine it is damn cold, but I have a little clock in my head that keeps track of how long it's been since I've driven the Box. Today, the alarm went off so I had to take it out and "run"...

I bought one from the guy in the ebay link. I haven't tried to install it yet, but I know the supplied "cups" don't fit over the posts on the shifter. They are machined wrong. Be careful!

I'm 6'3" and 250 lbs. I had to stick with a pre-2005 model. In the later ones, the center console is non removable and interfered with my right leg. On the older ones, there is a console delete kit...

Is the Boxster the unloved stepchild?

The other evening I was far away from home in a hotel bar. A guy came in wearing an official Porsche Motorsports shirt.

I was returning from an SCCA racing weekend (not in a Porsche) where there...

Best highway for a full tank was 30 on 2003 S. High 20's consistently on the highway (70-75 on cruise control).

Best mileage when I can find pure gas (no ethanol)

Never check it otherwise.

+1 on payig 18k then doing IMS/RMS right away. I'd flush every fluid and replace belts/hoses too. You'd end up with a pretty nice car with a long life ahead of it.
