2003 PORSCHE 911 TURBO Complaints

I WAS CRUISING WITH THE FAMILY AT 65MPH AND HEARD MY BELTS SQUEEL AND THEN STOP AFTER 2 OR 3 SECONDS. ABOUT 20 SECONDS LATER A LOW COOLANT LIGHT CAME ON AND MY TEMP LIGHT WAS BLINKING. TEMP WAS ONLY AROUND 195 TO 205, PRETTY FAR FROM THE RED. I IMMEDIATLY PULLED OVER AND SHUT IT DOWN. THERE WAS A LOT OF COOLANT LEAKING, A LARGE TRAIL FOLLOWED ME OFF THE INTERSTATE. *TR

COOLANT PIPE FAILURE AT "COOLANT CONSOLE" ON TOP OF THE ENGINE CAUSING ALL COOLANT TO IMMEDIATELY SPILL ON TOP THE ENGINE, SPRAYING THE REAR TIRES CAUSING REAR TIRES TO LOSE TRACTION. THE COOLANT PIPE IS PRESS FIT WITH WHAT APPEARS TO BE AN ADHESIVE WHICH FAILED LEAVING THE EXIT PIPE MADE OF STEEL SEPARATED FROM AN ALUMINUM " CONSOLE OR BLOCK". THE COOLANT LOSS WAS IMMEDIATE CAUSING TOTAL COOLANT LOSS. VERY DISCONCERTING AT 70MPH HAVING COOLANT SPRAY ALL OVER THE REAR TIRES (PARTICULARLY THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR). CAUSING THE REAR OF THE CAR TO SLIDE SIDEWAYS ON A GENTLE RIGHT HAND BEND ON AN INTERSTATE. *TR

THE COOLANT LINE CONNECTORS THAT COME OUT OF THE ENGINE / BLOCK ARE DISLODGING FROM THE ENGINE BLOCKS AND BLOWING OUT ALL OF THE COOLANT IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. PORSCHE USED SOME SORT OF ADHESIVE TO HOLD THE CONNECTORS IN THE BLOCK INSTEAD OF WELDING THEM IN; AS THE CARS AGE AND GO THROUGH LOTS OF HEAT CYCLES, THE ADHESIVE IS WEARING OUT AND THE CONNECTORS ARE BLOWING OUT OF THE ENGINE BLOCK CAUSING A MASSIVE COOLANT DUMP WHICH CAN BE DANGEROUS IF TRAVELING AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. *TR
