I’ll go back eventually to have them do the brake fluid change though it sucks that a car with 3k miles needs this done but they say it’s a time thing not a mileage think.




It is inflatable though I am not sure of the size, I got it at Suncoast (see link below) how do you suggest I secure it ? Usually I just squeeze it in and put towels around it, I was surprised to see it was loose.

It's up to you, but I don't think you need wiper blades unless the blades seem like they aren't cleaning well, and I wouldn't get the oil changed for at least a year since the last change (less seems wasteful, honestly, given the mileage you drive). I also think replacing the air cleaners on a 3K mile car is a bit nuts.

As for the brake fluid? Yeah, I'd do that once every couple of years.


I haven't seen a 981 frunk, so I don't know if there's anything in there you could run a bungee cord through (are there removable panels like in the 987?). That would be my first choice.

The 986 spare fits pretty snugly in the 987 without moving, so I haven't really had to explore options.

EDIT: This post might help; he's using the 986 spare but the place he hooked the cargo strap would presumably work for yours, too.
