Cut open the old filter to check for metal fragments, clean as a whistle !
BTW Luv my Boxster

There are only 2 oil tubes that run from the "boot" to the engine. One is the big 2" filler tube and the other is the dipstick tube. Both are plastic and both tend to get very brittle. There's no overflow for oil, btw. I've worked on my engine and had both tubes break from age. Not expensive, but not real easy to replace.:ah:
I <3 my Boxster, too!
