warranties never work! by zaina

if it's a 98 boxster, i would just purchase it and save my money for repairs. I hate warranties, they never cover what you need anyway! where i live, the warranty only costs 1200 dollars, and i still refused to get it!

HAIR LINE FRACTURES ON BREAKS by zaina
Jan 01, 2008 (9:42 pm)

I have a 2006 Boxster, with barely 18,000 km on it, and I've taken it in for the 2 year service, and they've claimed I need to change my breaks, and the break discs because they are fractured. I am a very careful driver, I've never raced or driven my car in any environment other than your regular town streets... should I have reason to beleive my breaks were defected to begin with?

Not a brake man by marygi

I'm a Box owner also, and plan to do some of the maintenance. As a general rule I believe Porsche recommends new rotors with every 3 brake pad replacements; as you know the rotors can't be turned. It's a good idea to have the mechanic show you the damaged/replaced parts. He might have an idea as to why this happened. For competent answers, visit renntech.org, a place for more technical aspects of P-care care and maintenance. Good luck.

I have an '04 and I simply replaced the CD holder with another storage shelf that I purchased from the dealer. Here is a link. http://e-partssales.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=P&Product_- Code=shelf986&Category_Code=POTEBXIN

dead battery ;( by jgboxcat

My 07 Boxster only has 20k on it - I haven't driven it now for 3 weeks and the battery is dead - called Porsche Roadside and they said they'd have to send it to the deal on a flatbed truck! Gee, didn't think the battery would die THAT fast. I'm going to try to old jumpstart - will be very disappointed if I have to spend $400 on a new battery - I love this car but sometimes feel like it's a money pit.

jump start, drive it around for about 45 minutes without teh lights or stereo on.
take a break do it again
if you have a car battery charger, that should do the trick..

I have an '01 Boxter S, I get an intermittent howl from gas fill flap area. Have had some success with insert of insulated rubber strip under filler flap door. Would love to find permanent solution, the only thing that really bugs me about the car.
