Hi
I'm on here on behalf of my dad who is a bit long in the tooth for forums!
He's got a 2005 boxster s special edition. He's just had an intermediate shaft failure and is pretty distraught. The car is only 25k miles, and has been serviced at porsche and an independent.
He only recently took it to porsche for a rattling noise which they claimed was an exhaust related issue. I have read somewhere else that this 'can of marbles' noise can be a warning of a shaft failure.
Has anyone got any experience of this on their boxster or 911, and do you think my dad has a case for asking Porsche to pay or part pay for the repair. I understand it's a case of a new engine?
Thanks in advance
Chris
