Hi folks,
After I brought the 924S home last weekend I backed him in the driveway, with the nose down at slight angle due and covered him up nicely. The next day I noticed a saucer sized oil spot under the car right below the power steering pump (right front passenger side). When I peeked under there it looked as if the oil was coming from above and dripping off the area located there. The oil filter is above it but I don’t see rivulets from it, though I haven’t yet jacked the car up. I plan on steam cleaning the bottom of the engine to get a better idea of what is going on.
EXCEPT... (here is the mysterious part)
I licensed him on Monday and took him for a spin around the neighborhood, just a few minutes. When I pulled in the driveway I parked nose up rather than backing in and got out the car wash items. I glanced and there were two pea sized oil drops. So I though, “hmmm I need to get a good look at that soon” then went about washing him and covering him up once again.
When I came out this morning I looked under and what do ya know? NO oil drops!
So all you mechanical Sherlock Holmes types, grab your pipes and figure this one out. “The Game is Afoot!”

PS...yes I know...the solution is. "Don't park nose down!"
