      @Brad Kells: He purchased the McLaren with dealer warranty. I'm guessing that entails having all work done at the dealer and not in a third party shop like the Wizard's. So unless the Wizard is an authorized McLaren mechanic and can service the car under warranty (or Hoovie is planning some mods that would not be done under warranty anyway), he is probably not going to make much money on the McLaren. But I can't feel too bad for the Wizard, with all the other Hoopties that Hoovie has, he should be keeping busy enough XD

  • @BluesyBor
    @BluesyBor 4 года назад

    LOL, this video helped me with my car and I don't even own a Porsche! But those problems could be pretty common in many other vehicles - in my case it was white/gray smoke in the morning (bad crankcase ventilation valve) and the smell of burnt oil (it's a turbo, so there's a one-way valve for the crankcase vent, and when it goes bad the turbo blows the oil through the valve cover seals and straight onto exhaust manifold).
    And it was just two years after major engine overhaul, so you've saved me from going through all of this again. :D

In your video that black boxster has the isseu where you can tighten up the top liner tension strap to make the top stay inside the brace when you put it up. Last but not least the IMS bearing that needs to be replaced I can't count how many I've done and engines I've replaced bc they fail. CV boots also almost forgot those they are very common also. Not bad cars tho. I always replaced the tubes and seals when I did spark plugs its worth the time. Cracked coil packs are getting common now also.

    Hi thank you, how good are the older Porsche Cayenne 3.6L 6V model years 2013. Will this be a good buy?

    If the trunk reservoir isn't leaking yet, is there a way to seal it up with something to prevent it from leaking?

    The 944 has been the easiest engine I have worked on. I was very intimidated being a “Porsche”, but I mustard the courage and the head job was easy peasy.

      Once you mustard the courage you ketchup the job.

    I get white smoke sometimes…I’m told it’s not a crankcase vent it’s the AOS - air oil separator.

    How did you get the trunk to open if the cable was broken?

    TIP #1
    If you zoom in on the part you are talking about then people can see what you are doing rather than guessing. Great video though. Will be very handy for a sight impaired person who wants to repair their boxster ;)

    Why'd the cable break? Is there a friction point rubbing on it on these cars?

    Great video I've been looking at buying a boxster. Is the ims bearing a big problem or is it blew out of proportion .

    Any way to fix the little flaps where the convertible top falls over the side of the window? It's very obvious on yours at like 9:17. I have a 987 with that same issue!

    Love this video but I would like your advice on one thing Wizard. I just bought a 98 boxster and was wondering should I really replace the ims bearing or has that problem been blown out of proportion. Ps this video was a great help when looking for one.

  • @parteibonza
    @parteibonza 5 лет назад +1

    Hey Wizard I had a 1999 911 and it had almost all those issues you covered (except for the coolant leak). I fixed all those issues myself. the motor never failed me however, it seemed to be very reliable. However, I was scared of IMS bearing failure. Have you ever had experience with that?
