A little secret for easily changing the gear oil on a Boxster or Cayman without having to remove the reinforcement plate and jeopardize your alignment, drill a 2-3" hole in the plate directly below the drain plug. You can insert your socket extension straight in to it and drain through it as well. On our race cars we change it every 10 hours of track time and this makes it very quick and easy.
Just remember to disconnect the battery before removing either seat. That's most likely what caused your airbag light. Depending on how far you go with your stereo upgrade, the amp may be under the passenger seat (my 986 Boxster had it in the frunk, my 987.2 Cayman has it under the passenger seat).
I was so glad to see The Car Ninja make his own TH-cam channel (part of the Wichita Automotive Mafia!)! Jonny is such a cool dude with tons of knowledge, mad car skills, and a wicked sense of humor! I am still amazed that, of all places, Wichita, Kansas has such an impressive automotive scene with way more exotic cars than you would ever imagine...
"Nobody changes gear oil". Well, I change them to all my cars when I buy them. Even the 1000-2000$/€ ones with 400-500,000kms on them (and I'm not talking about Porsches but regular 20 years old cars like Audi A4 or VW Golf or Passat with 1.9-2.0 TDI engine). But you are pretty much right, so many car owners doesn't care. Heck, even those with DSG's or Haldex systems doesn't care.
Starter was a lot easier than I was led to believe to replace. Moving the oil inlet tube allowed me to get at the other bolt that many said I'd have to get at through the panel behind the seat, using a very long extended ratchet arm. took less than an hour
Preventive maintenance is the secret recipe to keep a car up and running longer. Never bargain on maintenance, on oil or components quality, and never push it later, it would cost you so much more!
Love my 2000 986 S!!! She has 123,000 miles and she drives like a dream!! Do Basic maintenance and she is reliable!! No IMS worries here..My shocks are original too and yah they clunk a little but overall she drives like a champ 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 ain’t nothing like a manual 986 S they are beasts!!
Honestly the IMS is probably the least of your worries at this mileage. Have the ninja check the DME for overrev history and also check the camshaft deviation to gvie you an idea of how worn the chain guides are. Given the nice condition of the car I'm guessing it had meticulious oil changes so the internal plastics (and IMS bearing seal) should be in good shape. Oh and check the shifter cables too cause they like to fail. Other than that fix the supension, put a good exhaust on it, and drive the hell out of it!
Keeping my fingers crossed for you but I wouldn't put money on the air bag light not re-appearing anytime soon. What a well sorted car and worth every dollar!
They are common on Porsches. Usually its a switch in the seat belt buckle that goes bad that causes the light to come on. I had one on my 996 that I cleared over a year ago that has not come back since.
Back in 2012 my oldest son was invited and given security clearance to Nellis Air Force Base. One of the Thunderbird pilots saw my son's photos from Cars & Coffee visits on weekends and tracked him down over a months time. Asked him if he would come to Nellis and photograph the pilots with their jets ... and wait for it ... they all owned a Porsche!! They pulled their cars up next to their jets for the shoot. Photos were out of this world excellent. The also had a new Mustang prototype that they allowed him to take pictures of but he had to promise not to release the photos until they announced the prototype formally. I laughed hard when you said pilots all own a Porsche. True story!!!
I have 123000 mis on my 2010 987.2 base model. Replaced the exhaust system with a complete SOUL performance system (incredible), Numerics shifter and cables, new clutch at 115000 and new shocks/struts 120000mis. Regular services, oh and serpentine belt and coil packs/plugs at 75000. The car has been a joy to drive, no reason to trade up, down or sideways. Enjoy your videos.
The boxter is incredibly underrated. They are well made and just a pleasure to own if you know what to look for. I can't say enough good things about the platform and for such great price.
My offer still stands! My 911 had 275k miles when I sold it with lots of oil changes and solid maintenance. High miles don't scare me! Let me know when you're done!
Didn't get the Car Ninja catch phrase in this one - "It's actually very simple and straight-forward...." while he is elbows deep into an engine......the guy is a real master Cool video
Thanks for making this video about your Boxster and being honest about changing your mind after driving it and enjoying the car. I've heard the same thing about this car, that there is alot of hate on this car. Well done.
Love the car Ninja and keep feeding us videos so we can be happy and help pay for whatever shop/house you find. It would be classic if that bank screws themselves if whatever shady deal they were trying falls through and you end up with it for a real deal... One can dream. Good luck with the latest toy. 👍
And you're back to the place where you and I met.... Jonny was working on my BMW and you came in to film some Underground Racing Lambos. And now you're back with a Porsche. Been following your channel ever since we met.
Check play in the droplinks, check the gearbox back mount are always torn. Check the coolant expansion tank, IMS doesn't fail on 987. Check the front plenum drains (take the covers around the battery and vacuum)
I show my wife this video and she want one exactly like this! Well time to sell the Touareg tdi and start hunting for one not rusted out in Northern Canada Enjoy your nice one JR!
Johnny is such a nice and mellow guy, love him! Also it's always funny to see a creator being afraid of a high mileage Porsche. It's not a Ferrari or Lambo, these things are built to last (if properly taken care off).
For the airbag light, I had read that when you take out the center console (for changing out the shift cables and shifter in my 987.1) you have to leave the airbag light connected or you will get a code that has to be reset. Could be that it was disconnected at some point. But glad you got that sorted. Side note, mine had 99k miles when I picked it up in 2021, have added about 5k in 18 mo (minus winter) and I love love love driving this thing. It’s a base model and couldn’t be happier with the sound and feel of it. I have a clunk in my right front, and I had replaced the away arms and bushings, but still there. I hear you have to tighten the bolts with the suspension compressed so that’s my next thing. But nothing else really to mention.
2 things you must do before Eureka Springs. Remove the plate on the intake grill on the driver side and a catback exhaust. It changes the car completely for the better.
@@WatchJRGo the first exhaust I tried on my 987.1 years ago was the ebay Circuit Werks. Its made here in TX and it can be delivered quick to Kansas. It was way better than stock for about $400. Give that one a try. I just did a quick search and you can still buy it for that. Now I have a Fabspeed Valvetronic on my 987.2 and its like having a Capristo but it did set me back $4k.
@@WatchJRGo I have a circuit works catback on my 986 S. Super nice especially for the money. I have their mid cat delete pipe too. Wouldn’t hurt to try the CW catback
Having owned 3 of these I agree that IMS is not a worry at 200k miles. More likely to kill your engine at this point is your chain tensioners, variocam pads, water pump failure causing overheating and cracked cylinder heads, etc etc, pretty much anything else. Also a 2005 car could have the old “serviceable” IMS or the newer bearing that can’t be removed. You won’t know until transmission is off. If you’re doing clutch it’s not a bad idea to do anyway but not urgent.
My airbag light comes on in the cold for a 2006 mountaineer premier with the option front and rear side curt-ton air bags. I take it for inspection in the summer when the light is off.
That is a nice clean car. I have a 2002 Boxster with a stalling problem. Think it's the crankshaft position sensor has gone bad. Not looking forward to swapping it out.
Its the same with Ian Tyrrell (Tyrrell's Classic Workshop) far less subs then you would expect......but I think the Car Ninja has the same approach as Tyrrell and treats TH-cam as just a secondary thing, but the shop, quality of work and custom satisfaction is what really matters to those guys ......not subs and views.....its why you never hear either of them constantly brag about what a great mechanic they are and they just let their work do all the talking.......my thoughts anyways
I thought the IMS issue was on the gen 1, 1997 to 2004. Being a 2006 I think that was revised. Still has a bearing, but no failure prone like the gen 1.
To add this, the 97-99 had a double row bearing, much more reliable then the single row 200-2004. 2005 could be either, 2006-08 had very reliable internal non-removable (without splitting the case) bearing
Haven't seen Car Ninja on your channel in a long time, always happy to see him collab with you or Hoovie. And yes guys, I know he has his own channel, lol
I put aviation gas in my 911 once, happened to live close to a small airport. Ran clearly better with it. I am not a pilot but there does seem to be a connection.
The radio could be just the fuse on the back of it, that's what happened to mine. Could've blown due to a battery fault or jump start, hence all the codes too.
Sadly from 2030 on all combustion cars including classics will be banned from public streets in EU :-( In Germany the Green party gave order to shorten fuel supply from 2025 on by reducing petrol stations to only one state operated station per city. :-(
No IMS inspection? Do you know it’s already been done? Some leave a record in the engine compartment; others leave it in but install an indicator that serves as an early warning - might want to check it out.
Change oil every 5K mi. IMS issues happen when old oil gets the bearing coated in dirty sludge. Porsche used to recommend 10-15K mi chgs. Terrible idea. The oil on the engine and sump cover was from the oil canister not tight enough. Service Due is a time interval only, designed to get the customer to come to dealer once a yr. No stupid safety hex trans bolts on either my 08 Box S LE or 08 Cayman S Sport. Maybe an early 987 deal. Nice options on your Box - 19" Sport Design wheels, sport seats, etc. You should get the sport steering wheel - much better than std wheel, which feels like a piece of spagetti. Sport wheel is beefy, to steal a Wizard saying. You need to do a DE before you sell it. You'll have fun.
The IMS is not a super expensive fix. I would get "The Solution", unsealed bearing kit by LN Engineering. I replaced mine many years ago and will NEVER have to worry about it again.
I know this is a year old but just for anyone who comes by, it's not really worth worrying too much about the IMS bearing on this vehicle. The years with the ones that were particularly problematic were mid-year 2000 through 2005. Those were the only years with the single-row bearing.
The Ninja is better than a Wizard but not a Warlock. Love Jonny's Channel. Apparently there are some insanely dumb well off upper. idle class there in Wichita that have no clue what they are doing. And they all can't be E-3's and O-2's. Some of them are dependants of E-5 and E-6's, Plus O-5 and O-6's. And so,e are WO2 and WO1 Mustangs.
You don;t need IMS, by late 2005 they had started putting the redesigned bearing. Anything from 2000 to 2005 had that poorly designed single row bearing
@@WatchJRGo Any chance you're going era-correct on this? Like an old Eclipse CD5000 or Pioneer PRS from the mid/late 2000's? Jake doesn't understand head unit linkage to overall quality, me thinks. Go for quality decks, JR, and stick it to Jake.
