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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought a 2000 MY 2.7 a couple of months back and haven't been happy with the performance since I idiotically overfilled the oil shortly after taking ownership. It was drained and new plugs / filters the following day, but it still feels hesitant under load and has a slightly lumpy idle. It feels like the MAF has gone bad but I want a full diagnostic and tune up. I need a truly knowledgable indie engineer in the south east area. Ideally someone a bit older, with glasses and a beard who really knows this engine. Happy to spend the money but I want to really know she's in capable hands

Join Porsche Boxster Forum . It is a similar forum to this, but based in the UK. You should be able to find local help there

Try Lee at Octane Garage in Crowborough. Sorted mine after a cracked head and been good since. Plenty of Porsche experience.
