  1. 2000 boxster S serial # y5038096 type 4462 Thank you
  2. First off. Good morning and Happy new year! Recently purchased a 2000 S six speed with 58,000 miles from a divorce fire sale for the rock bottom price of $4000. Car was not running at the time the previous owner stated that he was coming up his driveway and the power steering and AC stopped working so he parked the car in his garage in 2017 until I purchased the car back in October of this year. Towed the car home installed a new battery and the car started right up. Noticed the high temp light was on so I shut it down pulled the engine cover and noticed the belt was broken which explained the no AC and high temp warning light. The culprit was a seized water pump Loaded the car back on the my trailer and towed it down to a local shop that I have been using for years and had the water pump, belt and thermostat replaced along with an oil and filter change. While it was at the shop I had the mechanic try to figure out why the windows would not go down. When you open the door the windows drop about 1 inch and then close once the doors are closed but will not work with the switches located on the center console. Checked all the fuses and relays and just spent the last hour watching videos so I think it might be the micro switch? When I first purchased the car the top worked without any issues when I towed the vehicle down to the mechanic for the water pump replacement I tried to lower the roof so I could get out of the car and it went down about 90% and stopped. Again all the fuses and relays seem to be fine. Ended up disconnecting the power unit and now the roof is in manual mode only. I have since put about a 120 miles on the car and everything else seems to be in good working order. Only wish the weather would cooperate so I could log somemore miles. So to recap. 1. Windows will not go up or down with the center console switch 2. Roof no longer works. 3. Need code for the radio (I read the DIY code topic so I will be addressing that later today) 4. Rear axle boots are torn and need to be replaced ( suggestions on where to order replacements) 5. Suggestions on any thing else that should be addressed on a car that has been sitting for almost four years 6. Wondering if there was a local shop around Quakertown PA that specilized in Porsche vehicles Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
