Hi there all..I am infrequent poster here as I'm normally too busy enjoying my Cayman
Anyhow, I've just had a major service (4 yrs) carried out by my local OPC on my late gen 1 Cayman at 36.5K miles. My car is not covered by the 'bumper to bumper' warranty as I chose not to continue after the initial 2 years.
Among the advisories I was notified on the service report was that the front discs and pads require replacement soon and as there is some fluid witness on one of the steering rack gaiters the steering rack will need replacement.
I can understand the brakes thing and have seen others comment that the life of these is about 40K miles and am prepared for this from a financial standpoint.
I am a bit surprised (to say the least!) about the steering rack. I have searched this and the Boxster forums and not found any reference that the rack is a vulnerable or fast wearing item. Would anyone like to advise on this before I empty my bank account (again).
Many thanks in advance.
