Damage to boxster front drains
martski131 replied to martski131's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Hi Harry, Thanks for the info. It's not something you would glean from looking at the manuals etc. Luckily, the drain that I've pushed in is on the passenger side (it's a UK, RHD car) so thankfully the fuel tank can stay put. When you refer to the 'right strut tower' and 'left strut tower' is right and left from the driver's persepctive or as you're stood in front of the car facing the battery? Thanks again, Martin -
Hi, I have a 1997 boxster (lovingly referred to as 'the money pit' by my wife). Amongst several other problems, I too have the soaking wet carpet (on the UK passenger side). I have succcessfully removed and repaired the two rear drain/drip trays and no longer have leaks coming from the rear of the car. However, I attacked the front drains (well the two either side of the battery - the cenre one I can't find) and they don't seem to connect to anything. This my be that one of the 10 previous owners may have pushed the pipe off or something similar. During my attaempt to clean the drains, I've managed to push one of the drains down into the car. My questions are: 1. Can anyone please tell/show/send a picture of where the center front drain is located? I've seen the diagrams and pictures that are on the web and in the Porsche workshop manual, but they're as clear as mud! There's nothing in the diagram that acts as a landmark for the actual location of the center drain. 2. Can anyone describe how to refit the drains that are either side of the battery please? Do I need to take the wheels/entire front of the car off? Thanks in anticipation.
