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.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Going on a two week KO for the Boxster. First the fan was out and we're waiting for the sensor to come in. Then I rigged the fan so I can have it on all the time in order to be able to drive the car and it works great. Only problem is when it heated up a little when the fan went out it sprang a leak. It took me all weekend to find it in the base of the tank. Now the tank has to come out and it'll be down for another week. :ah: My wife isn't too happy with having to drive the Intrepid to work so hopefully I can get this done this week. Anybody have any good tips to make getting the coolant reservoir out an easier/faster job?

Ya gotta love Chrysler products. We used to refer to them as the Disposable Razors of the car industry.
