Haz, so much trouble to arrive at the same at the end. Washing your engine block with rags won't fix your car. Here in France used Boxster engines are $3000 so maybe you should think about importing one from FR and move on with it.

I don't think the IMS change @ $2,500 is worth it anymore these days

A lot of convinced minds thinking that throwing the engine as far as possible by judging the filter... IMHO, I will make up my mind after Porsche Center Oslo has looked at both the particles and engine. Most likely they've come across this before and will be the most qualified to provide a sensible advice on what action to make next.

Madmods: I think you misunderstood his comment. He was refering to my previous question on where to find the engine number, then a different member advised to clean a certain part of the block to uncover the number.
I'm not in the mood for a comedian atm, thanks
