Our customer reported that this 2.5L naturally aspirated Boxster engine was losing coolant, overheating, steaming and loss of power. Our diagnostics showed that it had breached/blown head gaskets. We ended up removing and rebuilding the entire engine. Rebuilt the heads as well. Installed new multi layer steel head gaskets (the Subaru issue is the head gaskets are single ply composite gaskets and that is why they are so weak). We then installed a whole new clutch assembly (flywheel, clutch kit, bearing, fork etc.) as well as hydraulic system. We serviced the timing belt and the water pump as well as replacing the front and rear main/crankshaft seals. The vehicle is back on the road, running as good as new!
This vehicle came in for its regular 8,000 kilometer interval oil change service as well as the install of 4 new Pirelli "Scorpion" all season tires. During the complimentary vehicle safety examination we perform alongside every regular oil change, we discovered that the front pinion seal had a major oil leak. We immediately ordered the parts required and repaired the transfer case leak on the same day. Customers left with peace at mind knowing there are no more fluid leaks present on their vehicle.
A fuel filter from a 2014 VW TDI showing early signs of pump failure. Lots of small metal particulate indicating internal wear and tear.
Water intrusion into the trunk and passenger compartment. Various electrical components not working, like seats and windows. Another successful diagnosis, now just need to find parts!
Here is an intake valve carbon cleaning we performed on a 2012 Audi Q5 2.0T, which has 165,000 kms on it. This is a large cause of misfires. Customer was noticing loss of power, rough idling and misfiring. Carbon buildup is a result of incomplete fuel combustion. This can affect any engine that is direct injection or turbocharged.
