I replaced the CV joint boots on my 2000 Boxster S. 2 of the boot kits had this style of boot clamp. Are these OK? The originals wouldn't fit around the new boot.

CV boots and rear brake shoe
tommy914 replied to Crystal Shine's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
where can I find instructions on cv joint rebuilds? thanks Tommy -
Was there more than one type of shock available on the 2000 Boxster S? What option code should I be looking for and where will I find it? thanks Tommy

thanks for the feedback. That DIY is excellent. Between this and the CV joints, sounds like I'm going to get good at suspension work. Tommy

thanks for the feedback. I was quoted $900 at the dealership, so I'll probably give it a try on my own first. Tommy

It just seemed a little early for boot failure. According to service records for the Boxster, the RMS was replaced before I bought it. I wonder if the boots were damaged during R&R of the tranny. My only other experience with Porsche CV joint boots is in my 1973 914. I haven't replaced them in 20 years and I suspect they are original. Tommy

MY 2000 Boxster S with 32000 miles. I noticed fluid leaking from the left rear suspension area. Starting at the last spring rung and going down the strut housing, there is caked dirt that is "wet". Are the stock struts gas or hydraulic? Do these commonly fail like this? Or is this something else? I checked the brake lines and caliper. The backside was covered with the same stuff as the strut, so I'm not sure where its coming from at this point. thanks Tommy

MY 2000 Boxster S with 32,000 miles on it. It appears that one inner CV joint boot is completely split, and the other is cracked. Is this normal for them to wear out this fast? Can the boots just be replaced? What is the estimated cost? thanks Tommy

How long ago did you add the K&N filter. Those can cause problems with the MAF and other compenents because of the oil in the filter.

What about NGK plugs BKR6EKUB for MY00 Boxster S I was recently sent these when I asked for Boxster plugs. Will these perform correctly?
