Moral of the story I have engine leaking after top rebuild, and now I have a trans not working on the Cayenne. I done
hopefully the leak is a minor thing (i.e., something not properly clamped, or a seal that's easy to access)

Bring the 964 to the Tech Session at HBL on July 11, and let us have a looksie to determine what gasket/ seal is likely leaking. If the shop in question does not fix this for you, consider going the DIY route (with Dorki help), especially if only a partial drop is needed.

All is not lost. There IS hope. Please unload the shotgun, and put it back in the gun locker...

Thumbs down Heart Failure

A French prisoner killed his cellmate then sliced open his chest to remove and eat his heart, a court has heard.


Published: 11:36AM BST 21 Jun 2010


Mr Cocaign allegedly sliced open Baudry's chest with a razor blade, removed a rib and pulled out an organ Photo: AFP


However, the man removed the wrong organ, and ate his lung by mistake.

Nicolas Cocaign, 39, appeared in court in the northern city of Rouen for allegedly killing Thierry Baudry in January 2007 by punching and kicking him, stabbing him with a pair of scissors and suffocating him with a rubbish bag.


Mr Cocaign then allegedly sliced open Baudry's chest with a razor blade, removed a rib and pulled out an organ which he believed was the man's heart, but which in fact was a lung. FAIL
