READ ANSWERHow do you vacuum fill the coolant fluid on my 981 Cayman, Specifically how do you get a seal
Monday 09/14/2026 | 2014 | Cayman | Engine
I have been working with Pelican Parts and ECS Tuning to find out how to use their tool vacuum fill tool to change the coolant in my Porsche 981 Cayman. The attached file was sent to Pelican and ECS weeks ago and asks the question of how to connect the tool to the coolant tank and get a seal. I think a lot of PCA readers would like to know the "trick" on how to get a seal, and why Porsche makes that tab on the filler neck that prevents the seal with any normal plug. Please can you help. ...

READ ANSWERGuidance on 986 Boxster springs
Wednesday 09/09/2026 | 1999 | Boxster | Suspension
I’ve been on several forums but the answers have been wildly divergent.What I’m trying to accomplish is sharpen the handling a little while maintaining the compliance which makes it great for travel. The ROW 030 sounds temping, but again, no solid indicators if this is a good choice for Illinois’ MX-like roads. I will add that at 80k miles, I am surprised to find the OE shocks seem good. I had a previous positive experience with Koni yellows on another German car so that part is easy. ...

READ ANSWERWhere do I find the SAI maxi fuse/power supply.
Saturday 09/05/2026 | 2007 | Cayman | Electrical
my 30 socket for the SAI has no power (the 87 does which I’m guessing that is power to open and close the relay?). If 30 has no battery voltage, you go upstream to the SAI maxi fuse/power supply.Where Upstream do I look for this?What are the 3 maxi fuses in the rear relay carrier box? I just have the first one with a 15 amp fuse. I can’t find the diagram for this anywhere
