Boxster defect: white smoke (video)
Yesterday while driving 5000\6000rpm a big plum of white smoke appeared in rear-view mirror. Immediately stopped the car.
No warning lights, enough water and oil. It was recently serviced (march 2013) Check the vid: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29805910/IMG_1076.MOV You guys have any idea what's the problem here ? |
Yes. Try searching the forum using the key words "air oil separator" and you will find all kinds of information about your problem. Once you've read through the many posts on this topic, please post back if you still need further information. Welcome to the forum.

tnx, will look into it

Don't worry, well known issue.
$120 buys you a new AOL. You can install it yourself, medium difficult, mostly just tedious. |

Replaced the "air oil separator", problem solved !
Tnx for the tips!!! |
also try checking if there's a large vacuum when you open your oil cap while the vehicle is running. if there is, it's your AIR/OIL SEPARATOR! replace it asap! its either spend $120 or $4000. it will take you about 1-2 hr DIY.

Hope this one will last for a couple of years, this was my first air/oil separator in 124k miles :-)
