My car actually died and was able to restart it and get it home since I was only 1/2 mile from my house. When the engine light came on, a clack-clack noise was coming from the rear passenger engine and promptly gave out 5 secs after. I lost power steering. I'm hoping it's something easy as your's, but I'm preparing for the worst. Glad to hear your's only hurt your wallet and not the car.
I'm was so happy driving the boxster until this went down. I was planning to drive it 2-3 times a week, but for the last 2 months, I've driven it almost everyday. It's so fun and so responsive, whatever I want it to do, it does. Now wait and see if I can even drive it.
