    I have also used my GPS to track the accuracy of the odometer, and it too was off. About 1% on a +300 mile trip.
  2. White987S
    RFM, I thought this too, when I read his post, but he also states that the car is cooling properly. So, how does this shake-out?
  3. White987S
    This is very-very common. My car is off by 2 MPH too. My Porsche and my Ford Explorer.
  4. White987S
    Getting about 10,000 miles on a set of rear tires is pretty normal with our cars.
  5. White987S
    Tomnash, what are your actual cold tire pressures?
  6. White987S
    Yes, the part number for this Tequipment item is 000 044 500 09.
  7. White987S
    Sounds normal to me.
  8. White987S
    It would be ilegal if they re-set to zero (0).

    Mun802, you need to become a Contributing Member with a donation. Well worth it!

    What about using a torque wrench too?
  11. White987S
    Looks normal to me.

    Bob, I think Bumperplugs charges a fair price. Especially considering the work quality and customer service. How long would it take you to sand the vents, prime the vents, sand again, color match your paint, paint the vents, sand yet again, apply multiple layers of paint, clear coat...? Then do the math, based on your value of time as related to your annual salary. You get my point. Think how much a poor quality job would "cost" you! Or poor quality customer service. Everythng has a price, and that is usually based on a factor of cost + value. No more Caymen vent?

    Thanks much. I would assume that they will be offered eventually since once again, if an owner needs to replace them (factory parts) I doubt Porsche would expect that owner to get a set painted! Or so I hope! Yes, if someone got into an accident, they would have to purchase the OEM titanium vents, and then have them painted.

    The black side vents on the 2008 SE are the same as any other 987. Just painted a different color at the factory. Are you planning to put black vents on your Guards Red Boxster? I think it will be a bit&h trying to keep your black "Boxster" emblem on the rear trunk clear/clean of wax residue, not to mention getting caught in wash/wax/buffing towel. Be careful.

    I saw the 5W50 in Walmart today during my business trip to Toronto. It was on sale for $33 for a 5 litres jug.
  16. White987S
    If I remember correctly, Porsche states that +80% of the 987 is different than the 986.
  17. White987S
    Donlycan, maybe you should have bought a Garmin! :)
  18. White987S
    3ball, if you are waiting for the light to come, I would think you are waiting way toooo long!
  19. White987S
    Efedor, it was your brain justifiying to your wallet why you have spent soooo much money on tires! Enjoy. :)
  20. White987S
    Clubhead, you state the doors are identical...are you sure about that? I don't think they are.
  21. White987S
    Bad cats?
  22. White987S
    I wonder if there is any correlation between oil consumption and proper engine break-in? I have owned many cars, and have never needed to add oil between oil changes.
  23. White987S
    When I was doing my custom build, the Sport Chrono option was the one option that caused me the most pause in deciding to "get it" or "not get it". I decided to get it because it was not that expensive. I just never felt or saw the benefit during a test drive. Having owned the car now for 2 driving seasons and 17,000 miles, I really like the option and see the enhancement it gives the car. As for the bubble on the dash, that still sucks, IMHO.
  24. White987S
    Can you post a picture?
  25. White987S
    Why would anyone buy an automatic Porsche! :P (j/k). Is there a work-around for this? What about neutral.
