New to the Boxster team I am certainly glad there is the forum to fall back on. I am the new care taker of a zanzibar red 2001 Boxster. They are certainly a different breed. I have had mine for 2 weeks now & 2day I put the key in the ignition & it wouldn't turn. Called the closest Porsche dealer (75 mi. away) They said for me to have it towed into their shop. Wouldn't help me a bit! Turned to my trusty 986 Forum & found a post that said to jiggle the steering wheel & telescope in & out a couple of time & low & behold the ignition turned & I was on my way. Thanks to all that participate in this forum. This is simply the best!
