Well, she's back... boy did I miss her

Thanks for all the help and advice about how to proceed with getting my CS coolant pipes replaced.

I followed my gut and your advice and sent it to Boardwalk Porsche in Plano TX and they really did a nice Job. The tow truck showed up at 5:30am this morning and by 6 pm I was heading back home hauling *** up the Tollway. In a month of not driving her, I kinda forgot just how much fun the P!g is to drive. Jeremy Bulet over in Service really took good care of me. They let me supply my own parts (courtesy of Suncoast) which really saved some coin.

Anyway, thanks for listening to me ramble on and on about what to do. It's done now, and it's nice to have her back

Hi -- are you able to share the costs of the service here on Renntech?

Boardwalk Porsche in Dallas, Tx performed the work. I just had a better feeling about letting them do it over the "local" guy. I still plan on using him for minor things but I really wanted to be sure that this was done properly and anything else that might have gone wrong at the same time, checked out.

I purchased the "kit" from Suncoast for 529.00 plus shipping and it was absolutely complete. Luckily for me, the Dealership didn't have a problem with me providing my own parts. They were familiar with Suncoast and said it would be ok even though they lost about $600 by me not using them for parts. Yes, you read it correctly, over twice as expensive from the dealership. Labor was 1030.00 and I had them go ahead and do an Mobil 1 oil change since after the "incident" my oil looked dark and didn't smell right.

parts 529.00

labor 1030.00

Mobil 1 190.00 (next time I'll do it myself)

so right at 1750.00 out the door... which doesn't sound too bad when I KNOW it's fixed and fixed right. I was tempted to try the repair myself, but with no tools, time, or patience, I figured this was best.
