Re: Wanting to Join A Caravan - 16 days ago
We live in NE Ohio along I77 and would like to join a caravan passing thru the area Tuesday. We will be participating in Wednesday's events, so will be making the entire trip in one day. Can we hookup with a group going down that day who either passes by us, or whom is meeting in Beckley, WV?by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Blue Ridge Boxster Summit 2013 (No. 15)

Re: New owner questions - 26 days ago
...can I check the oil temperature with the on-board computer to see if it's safe to turn off the engine after pulling in to a rest stop? Oil *pressure* can be checked using the on-the-dashboard display (left stalk). You can check the engine temp with the right-hand dial that shows that temp.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum

Re: Driving The Roads in Canada - 28 days ago
For Guenther and our other provincial cousins: A long time ago I was on a main road (King's Highway?) near North Bay and there was little in the way of traffic as we went North. Have you ever driven Canada's more northern roads where the moose roam? It would seem to me that those roads would put the Diamondback to shame.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum

Re: The Boxster never ceases to amaze me - 4 weeks ago
I've put almost 200-miles already on mine. We took it for a Sunday drive and got ice cream, drove it to work once, and went to dinner twice. Tomorrow it will be unseasonably warm and the car will go to work again. So much fun to drive; so little time.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum

Re: When To Replace the Battery? - 5 weeks ago
This topic leads me to the above question. I have a five year old Moll that came with the car. My load tester says the battery is putting out 11.2V. No problems so far, but am wondering is now is the time?by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum
Re: Spring Time At Last! - 5 weeks ago
The Blue Box came out of storage Sunday and as it was 70-degrees, we went for our first drive. It was great. I had forgotten how much it is to pull away from traffic as if they are standing still, and driving thru curves as if they were not there. Monday I had a work car, but have started DDing my car as of today. It was 80-degrees when I drove home. Whoopee! Barkley, who loves to go for riby KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum

Re: 'N' Rated Tires - 7 weeks ago
Now, N ratings are simply porsche approval. Many things come into play - is the tire submitted, do they pay the fee, etc Grant There is an article on tires in the latest issue of Excellence that describes what goes into tires getting the 'N' rating. It was informative.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum

Did you get an inspection form with the car? It should have been filled out by the mechanic who did the inspection.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum
Re: Getting the stuff installed is one option - 2 months ago
Agreed, the notion of having a tech start pulling the dash apart to replace a functioning radio is asking for trouble. They did it twice to mine last year to replace defective parts with no problems.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum
Re: About those 981 lighted vanity mirrors that I don't have.. - 2 months ago
I wonder what the dealer would do if I showed up and asked them to install the 7 speaker system that the window sticker says is standard on this car ? If you paid for it, you are owed it. And if the window sticker said the car should come with 7-speakers, go get those other three. Your car is a 2013; right? Someone just wrote me that he is getting a 2013 built; I am thinking he meant 2014by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum
Re: BRBS 2013 - 2 months ago
Lee, Although the Summit officially starts Thursday afternoon, there are some really good events scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday afternoon. Think about coming down Tuesday evening so you can attend the pre-events. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing your car.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Blue Ridge Boxster Summit 2013 (No. 15)
Re: Can one be ticketed for both infractions??? - 2 months ago
While fully agreeing that going the prevailing speed limit is the safest course of action in the left lane, it does seem odd that someone can potentially be ticketed for both going too fast (above the posted speed limit) and going too slow (below the prevailing speed) at the same time. Agreed, there is some ambiguity, but we all know why some states have that law, as others have have commented.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum
Re: Is it the same year for 911s & Boxters? - 2 months ago
I think the Boxster got DFI in MY 2010. I am thinking that since the '09 got the 9A1 engine, it got DFI then, also.by KevinR-MedinaOhio - Main Forum
