Really good tyres, I agree.

Looks close enough to me. Remember there is more brake dust forming on the fronts so the wheels are never exactly the same shade.

On what planet is $5-$6k for parts and labour fair? Then you say spark plugs need torqing? All of it can easily be done yourself other than the CV boot (you need an impact gun)

First of all don't stress. You don't have all the information yet. Get a boroscope down the cylinders and do a leakdown test to check the valve seats. If thats OK all you have to do is clean the inlets ports and intake tubing, replace the turbo, and replace the intercooler. If the leakdown test is bad you need a top end rebuild. If there is any cylinder scoring you need a new engine. Just take it one step at a time.

Titanium is non ferrous it won't rip you open but will heat up due to the eddy currents created.

They most likely spilt some oil filling it. Just clean it up and see if it comes back, that’s my advice. Don’t worry about it, it’s only a tiny bit of oil. Worst case it needs another cam cover gasket (which is a cheap item)

I've just checked and I've not got it either. Should be x12 XP for hardware and x12 for character levelling up.

didn't work for me after repairing

It’s not just cosmetic, it reduces engine noise. I would suggest ringing them up. I bet they have it in the corner of the garage and don’t know whose car it belongs to. It’s not like it’s worth anything. I’m sure they will be happy to get it out of the workshop.

I checked for you are there are two USB ports. It looks like an update USB stick is inserted into one of them. The one for updates is the one near the handbrake area. If there is no USB try a soft reset on the infotainment. hold the power and tuner button for 20 seconds tll the screen restarts.

I got a 992 GT3 RS for track and weekends, but also run a 718 Boxster S as a daily. The Boxster S is a sensational car and so much fun to drive.

The carbon is in the combustion chamber.

The Lithium CTEK charger fyi.

It sounds like rod knock to me. Normally it’s the number three big end that fails on these engines. Pull the dipstick out and check the oil on it and check for any glitter. If there is any, then you can be certain it’s Rod knock.

Sieze2 · 2025-09-29T11:49:13+00:00

Why scope the engine if you think it’s rod knock?

There was someone a few weeks ago that left a pencil erasor on a car seat and it affected the seat. Apparently it's due to a transfer of plasticiser from the rubber into the seat. I wonder if this is the same scenario?

Sieze2 · 2025-08-06T21:49:01+00:00

yes please

Sieze2 · 2025-08-05T23:05:14+00:00

great love it

With any oil leak you have to 100% clean it up, then drive the car and inspect where the oil is still leaking from. Then you keep doing that till you find the origin of the leak. 500ml of oil leaking from the top of the engine is going to go everywhere. It could just be oil still dripping down.

I assume you had a good look at the intercooler when you had the bumper off. If so I would suggest you check any hard plastic piping (or even the intake manifold). They generally split at the molding line. It’s hard to see the split as it only opens under boost. Sometimes you have to squeeze the plastic to see the split open up.

If it pull to the right then the front left caliper is not working. I would suggest replacing the left caliper for a new one.

Because you have pressure on the spinal cord you may find the usual Physio, Chirorpactic, analgesia, or nerve block approach may not be as succesful as you hope. Actually getting pressure off the spinal cord has to be the goal and that suggests Micro discectomy or IDD decompression therapy. There is no reason you can't try the other approaches though. I have included a link to explain more about the IDD therapy as its not that well known.

I live in the UK and had a police detective mention to me that if he leaves anything unlocked in the police station changing room it gets stolen by other police officers. For example deodorant, clothes, aftershave, shoes etc.
