| Description of the problem | Starting to see weeping from a pressed and glued coolant line at the engine. It will need to be addressed very soon as it is an extremely dangerous situation if it fails while driving. Coolant will pour onto the rear tires and cause the rear end to slide. I cannot drive the car until this is resolved. Very poor mfg decision by porsche. These fittings should have been threaded, pinned or secured in some other manner. Using glue is just ridiculous. |
