      +Stgpop yeah I didn’t post it for sale anywhere, just mentioned it on some Boxster pages for that reason :). It pays to watch the channel and follow me on FB and IG 😆

    You actually helped me with replacing my gas cap on my 2001 Boxster - I couldn't figure out how to get the old tether off/new one on, but you told me how to do it. Other projects - well, they were fun to watch, but seeing you do them made me realize what was and was NOT in my skill set, so I farmed out things like the blowing foam chunks from the heater to my favorite shop (who while not cheap do great work). Plus it was nice just knowing how some of that stuff goes together.

    I still have my 1997 porsche boxster (986) with 117k and still performing great and turning heads every time I use it. Congrats to the new owner that just purchased your 986, I'm sure he will have no regrets since these are really fun cars to drive. "Happy 2023!!"

    Big thanks from the UK. All your videos are helping me get the confidence to maintain my 986 S myself. Really have appreciated all the content. So far oil change, coolant change, pollen filter, air filter so standard service. Gearbox oil, brake fluid, spark plugs and auxiliary belt bought and ready for spring.

    Congrats on coordinating a successful sale and purchase of the next car so close together. Your videos are great and are the reason for my Christmas present(s) this year: a ducktail & lettering for my black '03 986 S. Your videos are also responsible for its clean radiators. I only wish I had installed mesh while the bumper was off. Might try one that says "no bumper removal required" (radiator grill store) just the horizontal trim pcs. Happy New Year & wishing you plenty more subscribers.

    Nothing fancy, but I did my first tire change (on any car) two weeks ago from summer to winters. Was able to do it right thanks to the video demo from your wife :) I've also watched a lot of the other videos you posted to see what steps were involved in doing some things that I ended up having my mechanic do (like the cruise control and OBC upgrade for instance). Thanks for all the very helpful 986 videos over the years!
