Hi All,
I'm looking to avoid a known issue with the manual gearbox. In particular, the shifter cable and avoiding the event of when the plastic connectors at each end sometimes snap, leaving the car stranded and unable to select a gear.
Stuttgart Classic make a gear cable 'clamp' that stops these plastic connectors falling apart. Apparently this happens enough on the 987 Cayman and Boxsters to make an entry on the class action lawsuit website in the US - source 911 & Porsche World magazine.
If / When the shifter cable snaps, it's the plastic connectors that go and it's a new cable ~£250 ... plus the labour to removing various engine covers, centre console and dropping the engine slightly ... something I'd like to avoid!
Looking on the Stuttgart Classica website, they have stock of these brackets, packets of two brackets (one for each end) and an entry for a discount code.
*** Does anyone know of a valid discount code please? ***
Thanks,
Peter
