The fault you are getting means your Cam Tensioner has problems which it cannot compensate for by adjustment.

Driving your car with this error is inviting a major failure [sucking a valve].

I would not drive this car until you find a competent mechanic to evaluate your problem totally.

Short of running your Boxster without oil, there is not much worse then sucking a valve.

BTW - there is a TSB on this type of CEL.

What year is the Boxster.

I just noticed your name 911SC - do you remember the Carrera chain tensioner upgrade. This is telling you you are about to have one of those failures, if the CEL P code is dead on.
