Finally, I got my car back. The North America Porsche ran out of transmission replacement and I had to wait for one that Germany shipped. New transmission and new clutch costed $4,000.

It turn out to be transmission issue and Boxster transmissions are not repairable. I had to buy a new transmission from Porsche.

Jim had his article on Excellence magazine. I asked him for the article and he graciously shared that with me and I am sharing it with you (by his permission) Boxster_Clutch_and_Replacement.doc Boxster_Clutch_and_Replacement.pdf

I have a 98 Boxster, I have been driving with great pleasure and this is my 6th Porsche. It has been 20.000 miles since the last pad change. Recently I have several clutch issues and I showed it to the dealer but dont feel comfortable with what is being said. Dealer said pad and linkage requires change (estimated $4,000). I would like to ask your opinion. 3 weeks ago, I had hard time keeping the shift in the 1st gear, as soon as I try to accelerate it pops out and when I use Rear, it starts to shake. 2 weeks ago, no issues above, 1st and R is working great but hearing a sound in 2nd and 3rd (ad-hoc basis). This week, I am back to situation where I was in 3 weeks ago. Linkage sounds logical but pad exchange doesnt sound right since 2,3,4,5 seems like working good and I dont feel like it is slipping. Thank you I am in Palo Alto, who will be a good person to fix this?
