What kind of clutch do I need for MY 1997 Boxster?
If you are looking for an easy performance upgrade for your 1997-04 Boxster, you can install the 987 Boxster/Cayman clutch package instead of the stock setup. The later-style clutch package will give you a better disc with more clamping force from the pressure plate.
Why does my Porsche Boxster clutch keep slipping?

What happens when you remove the last bolt on a Boxster?

Why does my Porsche Boxster make a grinding noise?
Spongy pedals, excessive free play, and grinding noises all indicate problems with the clutch or hydraulic system. Strange noises that change when you push in the clutch pedal can indicate a pilot bearing or throw-out bearing beginning to fail.

How does the window work on a 996 Boxster?
I have seen a lot of window issues in boxsters and 996’s lately. The general operation of the door glass is simple in the 2 cars. Basically, when you pull the the door handle (inner or outer), the window glass will drop about a 1/2″ to allow for smooth opening of the door. When the door shuts, the window will raise back into place.
