      Get 40% off Car Vertical. By not using them and using another car checking service, such as Vcheck, that gives you the same info for much more reasonable prices.
      You guys do yourselves no credit by advertising this overpriced service. What do you care about more? A quick cash grab for yourselves or displaying the highest levels of integrity to your viewers?

    As other Porschephiles have commented, the R clip was missing from the caliper pin, allowing it to rattle out. The appropriate roadside fix would be to substitute a paper clip, or a small key ring, or anything else you can find of that ilk to prevent losing the caliper pin completely, which would be a much bigger headache to solve.

      Yeah, the engine has a lot of surface area on the inside which generates lots of condensation overnight. This makes mayonnaise when the car is driven. To get rid, just wipe it out with a cloth and run the car regularly and store in a heated garage. Or just ignore it.
