986.2 Boxster S owner, EML came on / surrey garages please ?

Post by Jessi »

Hi all, recently purchased my mint Boxster S, the engine management light appeared during warming her up last night, I’m aware it’s most probably nothing but I’m looking for a garage that might plug it in and diagnose the problem without charging the earth.

Or if it’s going to be worth purchasing an OBD reader, if so what one ?

I can’t remember who but someone told me about a Boxster / Cayman guy in Esher that works on them as a hobbie, maybe he can help. But can’t remember his name

I’m in Epsom by the way, don’t mind traveling if it’s good service, I've heard nine excellence are very good ?

Kind regards. Ian

Before the Cayenne went I had an iCarsoft960 which worked pretty well.

Yup 1 maybe 2 garage visits avoided & it paid for itself.
You'll also suddenly find friends you never knew.....
