thanks for the reply, yeah i figured the tape was not oem, lol but that is how i got my boxster back from bluegrass porsche on july 17th. the next day is when the billowing white smoke care from the exhaust. the service manager tried to convince me that the tech did me a favor by putting it there!!! but the very next day the oil air separator fails? i figured that the pressure differential from the cracked and duct taped vacuum line allowed the oil separator to fill with oil and fail. the separator has been replaced and the smoking has stopped all at the dealerships cost, but i also had the 30,000 mile service done at that time and have found many discrepancies in what they say they did versus what lookslike has been done. im very unhappy with the porsche dealership and now must find another qualified service station to handle my car. maybe cincinatti or lexington
