MY CAR IS A 2002 PORSCHE GT2 (THE DROP DOWN MENU ABOVE DID NOT HAVE A 2002 TO SELECT). IT IS A STREET CAR BUT TO FULLY ENJOY IT I PARTICIPATE IN HIGH SPEED DRIVER EDUCATION EVENTS HELD ON RACETRACKS BUY THE PORSCHE AND BMW CLUBS. THE ENGINES IN THESE CARS ARE KNOWN TO HAVE CATASTROPHIC COOLANT LINE FITTING FAILURES. THESE FITTINGS ARE ADHERED TO THE MANIFOLDS AND THEY CAN COME LOOSE. WHEN THEY DO ALL THE COOLANT DUMPS OUT QUICKLY. AS ANTIFREEZE IS EXTREMELY SLIPPERY THIS CAN CAUSE A VERY DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING SITUATION BOTH TO THE PORSCHE AND CARS BEHIND; THE CARS, DRIVERS AND OCCUPANTS THAT MAY DRIVE OVER THE COOLANT ARE AT RISK. I HAD ONE OF THE 7 COOLANT LINE FITTINGS IN THE CAR FAIL AT A HIGH PERFORMANCE DRIVING EDUCATION EVENT AT NEW HAMPSHIRE MOTOR SPEEDWAY WHILE BRAKING HARD FROM THE BACK STRAIGHTAWAY ENTERING TURN 3. I WAS SLOWING FROM A HIGH SPEED WHEN THE FITTING FAILED. MY REAR END WIGGLED WHEN THE TIRES HIT THE COOLANT BUT FORTUNATELY NEITHER I OR ANYONE ELSE
