Even if your mechanically inclined, the WP can be a bit of a PITA but very doable. Mine gave up at 52000.

Wink Recap on "what is that sound?"

So you were all correct!! "ding ding ding!!!"
Idler pulleys and some miscellaneous other needs. We replaced three belt idlers, and the serpentine belt. Total bill was $1,500.00 with parts and labor.(6.5hrs) not bad. Even with the new higher Porsche parts pricing. Porsche would had been $1,430.00 just in labor. If you're in Northern NJ. I recommend this place. It's literally a diamond in the rough.

Very low key, very good work, and very fair pricing.

All 3 pulleys and surpentine belt cost about $250 if you go with OEM. INA (OEM supplier ) would be less. Labor is ,wella DIY job. (AKA changing a fan belt) In 6.5 hours you can take the engine out 3 times.
But you are happy and the idiots and experts on the RL got it right for diagnosis.
Thanks for following up.
