I found that the two black clips on back of cluster - on the left & right need to be pushed as far back as possible when accessing the cluster. You need to make sure you closed them all the way when finished. They double up as the female plugin unit to make the cluster work. If this is not done cluster won't work. *See: http://boxsters.addr.com/hacks/cluster.htm
Coolant Leak
in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Posted
Here is a ghetto fix - try this before removing coolant tank
I tried J-B Weld ($6.75 Home Depot) takes 15 hours to cure sucks to work with handles temp range (did not work) then I tried the J-B Weld Putty ($6.50 Home Depot) - cures in 1 hour - did not work period.
Then I did some research and found VersaChem Plastic Welder Part No. 47809, cream color ($7.00 O'Reilly's Auto Parts) - this product handles temps up to 300 degree and 3500 PSI - easy to work with after a 2 minute wait time, cures in 15 minutes, hardens fully in 24 hour, WORKS great saved $295 on new coolant tank. You would need to unscrew all 4 bolts on the tank to get it to move around so you can get your fingers into the leaking spot (used paper napkin to trace leak) and empty coolant out of tank. Hope this helps someone...
