IMO the main takeaway from this experience is to be extra wary of Porsche Mechanics with more than 16 years experience. Just because they have been working on aircooled Porsches & VW's for 30 years doesn't mean they know anything about Boxsters & their unique engines. Early Boxsters sparkplugs should be changed every 30,K miles & that changed to 60K for the later models probably due to the improved fuel injectors & O2 sensors. Also worthy of notice is the high mileage acheived by this Boxster & in 2nd place Mac's at 256K, both original owners, both maintained properly at authorized Porsche dealers into the 200k mile range. This gives credibility to Porsche's criteria for "goodwill" out of warranty repairs.
