Would you be more motivated to do it if you had a high certainty that it was your problem? Or maybe put at a little ease having that certainty? I've occasionally found that knowing what the issue has been enough to be okay with not doing something about it. Not that I'm a model of good behavior, of course.

Sometimes, you can easily see a part, assembly or where two things touch without doing much or anything at all, although it would take tons of work to do something about what you might see.

And I don't really know what those operations entail on a Boxster or where they fall on the difficult to not-difficult-but-PITA spectrum.
