Hey guys, i just ipcked up an 02 boxster (2.7L) last night and I had a few basic questions about the car.

Do all boxsters have the electronic rear spoiler? Mine doesnt seem to have a button inside the car for it.

Secondly is I think Ive decided to go with 0w-40 Mobil 1 oil, but I cant find any reccomendations on the oil filter. Should I get one right from porsche or are there some aftermarket alternatives?

aaannndddd lastly, right at about ~80 mph in 5th gear there is this hollow intake air sound that get quite loud while cruising steady on the highway. Is this normal?
