Bump! Anyone got any advice for this user?

As for the smoke, does it smell like burning oil anywhere? You could have a leak that is being burnt off once it hits a hot component. Post your Boxster year and info for users as well.

I'd bet Jake Raby would have a pretty good idea.....

Sounds like a rod to me. Any recent overrevs? New bumps on the case?
