That's probably a little deep for my pockets and my interest. The CD probably will be enough to give me an idea of what may be wrong, and will help me use the right terms when speaking to my mechanic.

I saw a set of manuals that looked like looseleaf binders on eBay. The set sold for $197.50. If it's the same thing you describe, somebody got a deal. Porsche Boxster 986 Authentic Factory Service Repair Manual (15 volumes) - Rare! | eBay
