Jet 1 Porsche Boxster S (986) Engine Removal (Part 1)

[@ereman6]

Top notch "how to". If anyone questions the bagging & tagging it is necessary. Unless you're a porsche mechanic & do this job many times you will forget where something goes.. It is not impossible w/o bagging but time consuming. I like the zip lock & sharpie don't normally document steps but that sounds very useful. It is a joy when you put a job this size back together without a hitch. This video is professional quality, from the sound to the presenter again top notch thanks a lot.

Thank you for the kind words, Tracy

Wow! I'm replacing the motor in my Boxster--this is an incredible project! Thank the lord for air tools and electric impact tools. Thanks for making this series!

[@brianlamberts756]

BTW. I'd kill for access to a lift.

@@brianlamberts756 poor man's answer? All kinds of scissor type affairs for 1000 to 1500 ....way better than floor Jack's and jack stands but of course falling short (literally) of premium lift

Best video I’ve seen on removing the spoiler and rear bumper.

[@stevenbukoski4474]

thank you for the kind comment

Thanks for putting these videos up as I appreciate the effort it takes. My only feedback is that the music is too loud in the mix and sometimes you can't hear what the guy is saying. I don't think you need it and it's a bit distracting to be fair. I'm keen to see more videos though!

[@roaringtigersgarage4672]

Thanks for the feedback! Will work on improving this aspect of our videos.

[@ereman6]

I agree in principle but here I didn't find it that distracting, much better than a rattletrap w lame jokes at least.

[@cristinacocos9493]

Waiting patiently for more boxster "JET" videos. Keep up the great videos. Thanks!

[@hillearybrown7083]

Great series!. Nice shop everything in it's place

[@Maxim986]

I will do this job next month on my Boxster

[@utubejoe11]

Great vids guys. The background music is distracting and adds nothing.

[@bryandees8242]

I'm using this video to pull my 3.2L 2000 Boxster S engine ATM. Going well

[@713slipkn0t713]

Where'd you find the instructions for the removal procedure?

[@alfonsocastellano1993]

best compliments...

[@michaelwilliams4635]

im so jealous of youre garage

[@m.j.9391]

Is this the same procedure for a 2.7L boxster engine removal.?

[@brianlamberts756]

Yes.

[@m.j.9391]

@@brianlamberts756 Thanks for the video. It's very informing.

[@crecer01]

Hi there, Is these engine removal steps would be the same for 2003 Porsche Boxster NOT the “S” model. Please let me know. Thank you.

[@brianlamberts756]

yes

[@therealgaragegirls]

Do you have a kink to the engine removal steps you referenced?

[@stevenbukoski4474]

Megan, I don't have a personal list, but I use a workshop manual (WSM) from www.workshopmanuals.co.uk in conjunction with personal notes along the way.

[@davidstahl3853]

Could you remove this with a 4 post lift?

[@alfredsnyder4]

Wait The Porsche Boxster S Has 2 Trunks. Cool. That Way I Can Put Twice The Luggage In The Car.

[@viperfan85]

so many things to do...

[@dougiequick1]

SO makes me want a Porsche! (NOT!) Dang just insane how cars get engineered and assembled to be nightmarish to work on

[@michaelsmitten9240]

As an owner of a Boxster S and a lover of rock music, I should enjoy this, but I can't. The music distracts me from listening and hearing. Known as the Irrelevant Sound Syndrome, rock music especially detracts from intelligent concentration on technical matters. I don't know if is dubbed or being played in the workshop, but would ask if it can be got rid of in future, please

[@nancygordon2757]

Maintenance is a b****tch on this little beauty putty pie. Just junk design and hugely unreliable.

[@michaelsmitten9240]

But very fast with a unique pedigree of performance, handling and style. Get yourself a bog standard if you can't keep up.

[@brianlamberts756]

Jeez Nancy, maybe you should trade in your Boxster for a Prius.
