Congratulations, on the mileage, very nice to see! And great photos from your detailing peeps. 8-)

The turbos are a surprise. I have not been on here for a while and thought that it was the water pump giving you troubles.

Hopefully she will be fixed very soon to your satisfaction. :)

Hi Semerka! Hope you’re enjoying your 4.0 Cayman. :)

Yep, booked in for new turbos, with a significant goodwill gesture from Porsche GB.

While the engine is out, they’ll continue to investigate the coolant leak, as they don’t think it’s the water pump...

Watch this space...

Cheers,
Simon

She looks like new. The 991 shape is a classic, I think my favourite.
Good luck with the turbos replacement, though it sounds scarier than it really is (apart from the financials 😉). The turbos are quite exposed, and therefore accessible.


Yes, we are still enjoying the Cayman 4.0 GTS. It's a very useable every day car and then also brilliant on long journeys. I don't even use the radio, just listen to the engine noise and all the mechanical gear changes. 😃

Here she is on her August jaunt to the Czech Republic, having a rest in Germany:
