No problems so far other than the usual.PSM failure message and xlcycking the windows. Ok so yes the cat jumped on my lap but how can cycling be predicted to that. Better watch the tour after the GP ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reply is it should take ..x but however!!! Oh, there was a lot of chat, a few cups of coffee and a long lunch thrown in. All very social. Wouldn't make much running a workshop commercially at that pace! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOB.T Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 I've done the snorkel thing today, not 100% convinced I like it. Turned the traction off and got a bit sideways out of a junction, 100% love this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cptspaulding Posted July 6, 2021 Report Share Posted July 6, 2021 New discs & pads fitted to the front. Nice to have confidence once again. Was on the permanent warning where I guess the sensor wire has been broken to open circuit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOB.T Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 Today I wanted to see if my jet would fit in the car, doesn't go in the trunk but fits nicely in the frunk! There was slightly more room after an(other) unsuccessful sortie! Currently sat holding it together waiting for the glue to set, again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andygo Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) Weather looked ok this afternoon, so I thought I would swap the drive belt for the new one I had ordereda few days ago plus a new set set of plugs. Although my Cayman 987.2 is a late 2010 example it has only just hit 25,000 miles with a full OPC service history, so it's arguable if either were strictly required. For £16 a new Gates drive belt was a no brainer and having read reports of aged plugs seizing in the alloy head, thought I might as well swap just in case. It's just the way I look after my cars, prevention is better than rushing to fix something thas been neglected because the service schedule says its 'OK for now'. Took the belt off, looked pristine, which was just as well as the replacement was about a foot longer than the original. meaning the original is back on. Plugs came out like a dream, no sign of corrosion, in fact the aperture in the head was like new, super shiny as though it has been machined yesterday! Was a bit of a fiddle, not a lot of room TBH. Installed the new plugs with a smidgen of silicone grease on the threads, so they should be good for another 40,000 miles. As an aside, I know there are two schools of thought about buying very low mileage cars, which I totally get. On the other hand, stuff I have replaced has generally been not too bad to sort, with less corrosion than one might anticipate on a 10 year old car. Having said that, I haven't touched the ARB links yet..... Edited July 7, 2021 by andygo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001pt Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 Been in for a 10yr service at Brookspeed (great service from them as usual) & she got a clean bill of health 😀 The only thing of note was one seized brake bleed nipple when they did the fluid change. I plan to get some PlusGas on to it at the weekend, followed by some heat/cooling treatment if that doesn’t work 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
