- Another repair on my Cheap Auction Porsche Boxster 986: the window was not going up or down, leaking, and making a weird noise. In this video, I fix all the window issues in my cheap Porsche Boxster 986 that I purchased from auction two months ago.

Thank you so much Matthew, your support is truly invaluable, and it makes a world of difference! Your comment and like tell UA-cam that this is a good video, and more people should enjoy our content! 👍
I feel your pain. Before the Range Rover I had a Focus convertible that had the same drop window system. It went a bit wrong but it was a build up in the motor. I could feel your frustration and am so glad you got it all sorted. Onwards and upwards mate.
PS congrats on reaching 3k

I did the very same job on my 987 3.2s
There are after market door latches on eBay. I paid about £30 for mine. Job done.
Hi Jim, I don't know how it went wrong for me, maybe I need to improve my skills or buy better parts. Glad you got it sorted on your 987! 😊
I think you needed to do the window reset procedure after installing the eBay part, which you did not show on the video. You did do that with the Porsche part. Roll the window down and then back up hilding the button in the postion for a second or two after you reach the bottom and top of the window travel. Well done for sorting it out and letting us learn from it.
Hi Neil, thank you for your support and positive feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. 😊 With regards to the eBay part, I have tried everything, including resetting, but I also wanted to confirm that I have not done any reset after installing the Porsche part. As soon as I installed it, it worked like magic! However, don't let this deter you from buying eBay parts because it looks like I'm one of the minority people who had issues with eBay parts. But I could tell that the eBay part wasn't legit because, since that video, I've attempted to get in contact with the seller on eBay and he's refusing to respond, and eBay can do nothing about it.
Try not to waste money on Chinese eBay parts , kudos to you not giving up
I thought I'd give it a try because a lot of people had recommended to me to try eBay parts, but I agree with you, I will try to buy genuine parts as I usually do on the Range Rover. Thanks for your uplifting comment!
Hi any thing new on the Porsche restore? hi from Prague.
Hi from UK!👋😊 I am literally working on it at the moment, as I'm replying to you! And I will be making a video on it soon! 👍Hope you're doing well!
Welldone did you hurt your hand whilst fixing the car? I wonder if the first lock you bought was the wrong type for your car , I recently replaced one in my evoque due to not opening ( what a nightmare trying to attache the hooks inside the panel no room and cant see what you are doing ) but whilst ordering it seen some for keyless entry etc so wonder if yours was for a different model.
Hi Joseph, thank you for your support! I have damaged some of my nerves doing other projects which may be featured on this channel 😉 Thank you for asking😊 With regards to the part, you're right, it could be! I understand that some people bought a locking mechanism from eBay before, like I did, and I confirmed with the seller if it fits before I bought it. But I think I'm just unlucky when I buy parts from eBay! How is your Evoque doing now? All good and sorted? 😁
@@lifeasusual all good always had a problem on that door and window , I think someone had a look before and disturbed the rubber on the runner
In this case, it's really good you sorted it and now you don't have to think about it anymore 👍🏻
I traded my Porsche for a Fiat. Much better quality.
Which Fiat did you trade it for? And how does it compare to the Porsche?
