First Mod!!!

(Aug. 1, 2025) I knew I wasn’t going to like the orange turn signals, so I had ordered them to be here prior to receiving the car. I put them on the moment I got the car home. Before and after:

Coolant Leak

(Aug. 23, 2025) Ugh. Came home from a drive two weekends ago, and after parking, came back after awhile to find a coolant puddle under the right side of the car. Took nearly a gallon of coolant to fill back up. Moving it around when cold didn’t result in additional puddles. With thoughts of failing head gasket in mind, I set out to figure out where the leak was coming from. Fortunately found it, and it wasn’t a head gasket! Turned out is was the upper coolant connector hose (Porsche part number:
991.106.833.01) – $69 part, fortunately. Looks like the upper clamp on the hose to the metal “T” failed. Cheap fix, but labor intensive; entire back end needs to come apart. But, the brilliance of German engineering is that it comes apart relatively easy, in larger sub-assemblies. For example: to remove the rear wing assembly I only needed to remove 4 bolts, disconnect one electrical connection, and disconnect the rear hood latch cable.

Rear Spoiler Fix

(Sep. 12, 2025) With the coolant leak final resolved, after replacing the crankcase hose that crumbled when I tried to move it, I was working on putting the car back together. This was when I noticed that the rear spoiler was broken where the springs are retained to support the weight of the spoiler when fully extended. I was looking at a $4200 replacement part, when someone on Rennlist pointed me to this thread: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/993386-rear-spoiler-spring.html. Rennlist to the rescue!! Was an easy fix, and the spoiler is back to functioning properly.
