There is a special C-Clamp made just for this purpose, and I've got one holding my exhaust manifold to the catalytic converter flange right now.(2010 Equinox 2.4L) Amazon sells the American-made version and O'Reilly's sells the Chinese-made version. My American-made one did not come with all the parts it was supposed to, so I had to get a second one from O'Reilly's, and I can tell you that the Chinese one was much better made and had all the necessary parts. My local NAPA regional distributor not only didn't sell these devices, they had never heard of them and were mystified that such devices might ever be needed or even exist. These clamps come in different sizes and are more compact than some of the regular C-Clamps, which is helpful in cramped spaces. On Amazon, the name of the device is - "Nickson 17351 Clamp-A-Stud." The same company also makes clamps that work to attach exhaust manifolds to V-8, V-6 and In-line 6 heads where you have broken off a stud or can't easily replace a missing one - very ingenuous devices, but slightly more expensive than the $5 Harbor Freight/Porsche-certified clamps. P.S. Porsche odometers only go to 99,999 miles. You know why - no one's ever gone further than that in one, so there's no customer demand.

You're absolutely correct about Porsche owners and dealers. They haven't changed in 45 years. One of my co workers was a Porsche owner with all the usual quirks. We thought it was great fun to spray a little motorcycle chain lube on the bottom of the engine and on the ground and tell him "Hey Ronnie. I think your car is leaking oil again." He'd leave work for an emergency trip to the Porsche dealer, they'd clean it up, find no leaks and send him home until a couple weeks later it would happen again.

Option 3. There are plenty of guys on Rennlist or 6speedonline that have several hundred thousand miles on their Cayennes, and mostly we spin our own wrenches. That said we're probably the minority. An old WELL SORTED (955 first gen) Cayenne Turbo is a beast and a bargain. Picked mine up cheap with 100k in perfect condition, replaced the fuel pumps in the driveway on a Saturday morning because German car + 100k miles = fuel pump(s). That was two years ago. 35k miles and oil changes. That's it. Tow trailers with it, pull my boat, even some light off road. It becomes pretty amazing off-road when you stick some decent rubber on it, like a loaded Touraeg, only more. When the driveshaft carrier bearing goes - and it will - Porsche's solution is replace the driveshaft for $1,500 - $2,000. The molded rubber holding the carrier bearing lets go. DIYers know that 30 minutes and $3 worth of heater hose and zip ties tied together like a macaroni noodle neckless will solve the problem for another 100k miles or more. Enthusiasts can keep these things going forever for pennies on the dollar. Take a peek or rennlist and you'll find loads of First Generation Cayenne TT with 200k, 300k, even one with 621,000 miles and counting. Practical? Mehh. Economical? not remotely. But man are they a helluva lot more fun than any SUV has a right to be.

You are right on some accounts. As a Porsche owner I have seen some of the older models with almost 300 miles. Most get rebuilt before they reach that stage. For the most part the engineering and reliability is very good and they take a good deal of abuse. Porsche only does one thing that's admirable and ground breaking is a 911. More than 50 years of racing history to preserve the brand. If they only built 911's they would be out of business as a car manufacturer. So they as many other manufacturers keep the company afloat by building SUV's and sedans. Yes! It's a nitichy crowd of owners and Porsche will charge you $25 for $2 bolt.

Second best car I owned was a Toyota Celica in the 80s. Third best was an Acura. But, master cylinder failed at 37,000 miles. Then again at 74,000 miles (yep exactly double - talk about a timer) but then drove it to 125K without incident. No one that I know who owns a Porsche complains about reliability.

Better get a manual. The Mustang auto transmissions are made in China and have proven to be less than reliable. Never mind that their interiors are rattle boxes new off the showroom floor. FWIW, I love the look and sound of the Mustang GT. I test drove one before buying my used Cayman S. 2.5 years and 26000 (44000 total) miles later, no issues. A common debate I have with my buddies is Cayman vs Vette. The argument is that my oil changes are expensive. However, what I spend on oil changes and tires they spend on cheaper oil changes and way more than expensive tires ($2500/set), so maintenance wise, the cars are about the same. Also, one friend’s Z06 has cost him $2,000 in repairs in 3 months and the other friend had to do a full motor rebuild due to a spun crank bearing, on a car with 80,000 miles.

If the Bob Moore dealer is the same guy that had a Subaru dealer down in Arlington, Tx about 6 years ago or so then thats the problem. The gremlins are their techs. I had my WRX worked on there so many times till I got fed up and drove almost an hour away to get it worked on. The guy that worked on my car messed up more things than I had wrong with it. The service writer got so annoyed with me coming back. The last time I went in there I told the guy that when I turn I got a new noise. He got annoyed and said there was nothing wrong without checking it. So I told him, ok if something breaks on the high way its YOUR fault. So he laughs and says nothings going to break on the highway. The front sway bar mounting bracket on the drivers side literally broke while I was driving not long after. The idiot tech must of cross threaded it then zipped the nut on with an impact wrench. I was going to return to Bob moore and find the service writer and throw the broken pieces in his face, literally was going to throw it at him when I saw him, but they had already closed down. Just another example of what kind of gremlin this tech was, he did an alignment and some how mad the rear wheel alignment so bad it roasted both tires in back. When I brought it in, this same service writer I'm talking about was like "oh well we'll put it on the alignment and see if it really is that. Subarus come with a pretty aggressive camber" So I walk behind my car about 10 or 15 feet away then motion for the guy to come over. Then just point to how visually bad the alignment is. So he goes "oh yeah thats not good......."

Porsche owner here. 2019 GT3RS in fact. Love your stories! (Also own a 300k mile F250.) To any Porsche nut that has negative reactions, I would say, sure, Porsche makes some cool stuff. But it isn't made of magic pixie dust. It's just a car. We as Porsche owners are not automatically better people than anyone else just because we spent a bunch of money.

Never underestimate the power of vice grips....or c clamps.....or bailing/mechanics wire. Used all three at some point. JB stick works too.

My god I know just a little about cars and I started watching this guys videos and not only is he informative, especially with budget repairs😂. But he’s insanely funny and entertaining and that is like the sole reason I subscribed

I'm not an expert. But after analyzing the video from beginning to end, I cannot say anything. Because I said in the beginning, I'm not an expert.

Lmao that reminded me of when I use to work at a refinery in Galveston TX, I drove my straight pipes 83 Mercedes Benz 300D to a Mercedes dealership after work..I went to look at a G Wagon and was wanting to buy it in cash..Saleman came out looked me and my car up and down and said..That Wagon Is a beauty isn’t it? And walked away lol..I said I want to buy it, he turned around and laughed and said, you couldn’t afford the payments. I laughed, walked to my car and pulled out my Wells Fargo pouch, got 200k right here and that thing is only 120k, but cool flex I’ll take my money to Cadillac then and walked away..Saleman tried to get me to talk I said nahhh have fun lmao

Westin, you should hook up with Jeff Foxworthy, Larry the Cable Guy, and that other fellow. You have a very entertaining way of telling stories.

Priceless story, thank you. I am still picturing the Porsche staff taking pictures. I had a good laugh. P.S. Never will there be a Porsche with over 300,000 miles on it; doubt they would make it half that far. Thanks again and keep up the videos.

There is another great Bob Moore Porsche story on Auto Auctions Rebuilds. I think that dealership leaves more than a little bit to be desired. Check him out!
