I’m not a mechanic! I’m a mechanical engineer who enjoys doing DIY maintenance and mods in my cars for the fun of it!
In this channel, I document my experience working primarily in my 2015 Macan S and 2018 718 Cayman S.
I do minor to moderate maintenance, as well as experimenting with modifications.

718 Oil Cap Update: A few things I need to complete before I open the marketplace and start shipping out: (1) build an installation template (so that you know where to drill the hole) - Done; (2) Detailed installation instructions - Done; (3) Installation video - in progress; (4) building inventory - in progress…
I hope to finish all this over the weekend and make the part available early during next week (week of April 20th).
Thank you for all the support and for your patience. This is a totally new endeavor for us… and your support certainly helps us create more content.

For those of you DIY’ers who have replaced your 718 engine oil, you know what a pain is to remove the undercarriage cover to get access to the drain plug. I have solved this with a solution that looks OEM and will allow you quick access to drain plug without having to remove the cover… saving 20-30 minutes in this job…
This solution will be available for sale soon… stay tuned…

Hacked the dual unit passenger screen and modified it. It now looks proper for a Porsche…😊. Let me know what you think. Will be making video and linking all files. BTW… the left buttons are now all functional pointing to the apps I want. I also created a black screen app and now the on/off button turns off only the passenger screen and not the whole unit.

Had a great time this past Tuesday at the 2025 Porsche Roadshow at NH Motor Speedway. Great venue to test the limits of these cars. Many Thanks to @porschenorwell for inviting me to this event.
I’ll be posting some short videos of the experience… Got to test drive the 992.1, and also see the 992.2 driven by instructor… also test drive the Cayenne Coupe S, Taycan 4S and Macan 4.
Overall, great experience. Porsche treated us like VIP.

Just received a new saddle for my Porsche Macan from ACARDash (www.acarmultimedia.com). ACARDash was gracious enough to send me one so that I can make an installation and review video for all of you (I’m sure a discount coupon will be made available). Will be installing over the weekend and video will follow up shortly after. Will let you know if I’ll keep it or swap it back! Stay tuned!
