I need to flush to coolant on a 1997 Boxster. Are there any recommended system flush and coolants for this car or will the normal extended-life, aluminum friendly products work fine? Thanks.

Thanks for the links. We will have glycol water flowing on Saturday morning ...

 

If you are replacing the coolant..................
There is a Porsche coolant only that you want to buy. I believe you will find out it takes alot of coolant and $ dollars per gallon.
Check on PPBB and ask for more details about flushing your coolant properly. Or do a search for more information.

BTW, do you have the coolant cap, the flat kind inside of the cap? The older cap does not seal well.
