It’s a dark grey day in Norfolk. Only one thing for it, take to the road and add some colour!

Took the 911 back to Silverstone WEC meeting, went in the Boxster on Friday.

Lots of moderns there and I think 7 classics

Busy week ahead for the 911, starting to rack-up the miles. :drunken:

Just a short tootle down the road to check tyre pressures, in readiness for the trip across to Oulton Park for the Gold Cup Races on Sunday.

Any other DDKers going?

Called by Williams-Crawford to have the fault codes read on the Cayman after the warning message on the dash suggested a PDK problem. Amazing seeing how the ECU log showed the fault had lasted for one second... Now to find out what caused it ('Pressure adjuster 4, cooling flow 3889'). If it was a 901 or 915, I'd just send it to Mike Bainbridge. :)

Into Aberdeen Porsche Centre to have the wheels aligned. Worked out OK much to my pleasure.

Motor still rich and not to my satisfaction. Not sewing machine smooth by any imagination. I sort it yet.
Found an oil weep from the oil cooler matrix :(

Not a cheap fix but APC have bettered any other price I have found.

Took the Boxster to Oulton yesterday, and floated out a few hours later, rain!

Took the 911 today for it's last run of 2018 and the strip-down.
Ran great if a bit harsh after the Boxster.

Went for a drive, after a quick stop over at the next village along we’ve ended up in Newmarket now for a late lunch Image
