When I hade my car serviced at the local Porsche shop they told me one of the rods was stuck and that they wanted to spend a few hours on it to get it loose. I hadn't noticed any problems or seen any DTC:s so I said I would think about it. After another 1000 miles or so I still havn't seen any problems, and I do quite a lot of logging with my Cobb AP.
I guess they just didn't try hard enough to move it by hand..? (Or wanted to make some easy money)

I was able to wrap the hanger around the lever and eventually get it down, then push it up, repeat until it was looser. I scraped away some of the corrosion with a needle file and eventually it was operating as it should. Took it for a drive and BOOM car was alive again.
Very odd that one side had corrosion and the other side was clean as a whistle. Have no idea how that happened.
As for rust under the car... I really don't have much at all, Just seems to be on the Exhaust bolts and a few small nooks and crannies. Let me know if you see any problem areas. not bad for 43k miles and 10 years IMO
This was the problem child, as you can see the rust built up, which is mostly surface rust. Cleanable. Hanger made all the difference.
