Put my 99 Boxster up on my lift tonight, and huh, look at that, entire engine is exposed along with trans. Not sure if it was left off by mistake at last service or if it came off down the road. Either way, I'm leaving Monday to drive from Colorado, to California for the historic's at Laguna Seca. How concerned should I be doing a week long trip 3500ish miles without it? Road Debri hiting bottom of motor would be my main concern, but what about rain on exhaust ect. Ferg

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

There are 3 trays, they go from the front of the car to just in front of the engine. It sounds like your car is fine.
I swore there was a tray that covered the belly of the motor ect when I did the PPI with my wrench, I guess I could be wrong. Going to search some google pics now.
Huh, guess I was wrong, or I remembered a different porsche he had up on the lift duing PPI time, I'm good, the tray in front is in tact, no more capt and coke while working on the car for me
