Leaves & 2017 Events.....did the 5k mile oil & fltr change, and checked the 991 over today...yes, a bit of cabin fever!  DIY oil & fltr takes me about 1.5 hrs and is not my favorite task on the 991.  Also checked coolant...it was LOW about 10 oz.  Yes, that’s a lot!  Not sure why, and will keep a closer eye on it.  The picture shows the leaves I pulled out of the front air/radiator ducts!  I had cleaned them out a couple months ago too.  Almost all water cooled 911, Boxter, Cayman and maybe Cayenne have this issue.  Big potential problem if allowed to build up, get wet, and adhere to the radiator coil face...serious overheating of the engine. If your heat or A/C seems weak...check this first. In addition to just pulling the leaves, twigs, stones, trash, etc. out by hand, you should also use a vacuum in there.  If you need help let one of us know.

2017 Events....Marvin, Bill, Larry and I worked on this over breakfast this morning...if you see an issue let us know.  A visit to Ingram Museum is awaiting a date from Rory Ingram.  ‘17 Panamera intro delayed til March, TBD.
