Thinking about another water pumper but need opinions
Ran into what I feel is a deal on a 02 boxsterS that's not local. It's too cheap to warrant a ppi and commited to buy it. Really can't lose.
Anyway a window was left down 2 inches for 3 months and took in water in floor enough that when battery is charged and try to start it the alarm goes off or has disabled the car from starting. Cars not local so a scan won't happen till I get it to Georgia. I'm just curious what u guys think is problem and what's under the seats. Dme? Computer? Ideas appreciated. Yes carpet was vacuumed dry and shampooed FYI. |

What I think happened is the rain shorted out the immobilizer.

Agreed, actually pretty common if the rear drains get plugged up as well. You can buy new or pay to have it rebuilt. Just do a quick Google search and you'll find a bunch of info.
