    Great points and info. The most scary thing I worry about is bore scoring and needing a full rebuild. Pay for the bore scoping during inspection and hope for the best. You can do your own research on this topic but I am doing these things: Oil change every 12 months regardless of mileage, don't allow the car to idle cold, stay above 2k rpm and below 3k rpm when cold, avoid using the car near freezing temperatures, closely inspect oil filter at changes. I'll also be adding a magnetic drain plug and considering oil analysis once a year. My Cayman S at 37k miles has no ticks at all aside from injectors and consumes no oil between changes so fingers crossed it stays this way for a long time.

    Great video Nathan. I bought my 2006 Cayman S at just over 100k miles. I was immediately impressed by how clean it was underneath (I live in the U.K.) and how well engineered the car is.
    Keep up the good work!

    I'm 8,000 miles away from 100,000 K on a 987.1 and I can confirm it's time for new control arms, brakes, and tires.

    the first thing people ask when i tell them i drive a cayman/porsche is "damn whats your maintainence like?" i always have to explain to them that it isnt that bad especially when doing basic stuff yourself (oil change, filters, brakes, spark plugs, random button failures)

    Thank you. This is the best video I've seen on this topic so far. I assume $3,000 for parts only? How much additional for labor if I was not mechanically inclined?

    One question are you saying not to be afraid of all 987's or just the Cayman?

    Is the 987 911 comparable in maintenance costs? Or is the 911 a lot more expensive to maintain? Also does the engine need to come out to do a 986 IMS bearing? Great stuff!

    • @ButtKickersReviews
      @ButtKickersReviews 3 роки тому

      IMS bearing is literally the same as a clutch job. Generally both are done ‘while you’re in there’. The difficulty has been waaaaaay overhyped

    No it is not S but the car was not used by the previous owner for 5 years so tires are old but not used.

    Hi Nathan, I am from the UK and I have a 987 Boxster, I have a issue with the Passenger side electric window which is not working. this is also a issue with these cars I have been told.

    Have you seen any problems with the transmission clunking and having play in the rear wheels (when on the lift)? Also electrical/computer problems? I was close to buying a 2009 Cayman S with 125 k miles. When my mechanic (with Porsche experience, of course) checked it, he found these issues and said the transmission was going to need to be replaced soon, and there was some confusion among the computers (throwing lots of faults) that was going to take a lot of time to sort out.

    Question on the cat delete here in this state you wouldn’t get the car inspected because of the emissions crap.

    • @TheTexasOiler
      @TheTexasOiler 3 роки тому +1

      They got these extensions you attach to the bungs on the header then thread your o2 sensor in some cases it passes your ecu not to throw a code or you could delete it from the ecu your choice but some states have less strict emissions laws
