Thanks for your comments guys! I really appreciate that.
The Boxster has got 81000 miles on it. Clutch is really heavy and sometimes not precise.

First time starting the engine after a week, there was a ticking sound on te left side of the engine head (cil 4-6). I was totally in panic (IMS IMS IMS IMS) because I paid for it and we'll want to drive it home (Netherlands). We drove really slow to the local Porsche dealer in Frankfurt and ,as always happened, the ticking sound was gone. Luckily they said it was a hydraulic valve lifter. I read a good oil change make some difference.

Another thing I heard after a 220 miles journey from Germany is a squeeking noise a couple of seconds. After that it's gone. Hoping it is an idler pulley or something in that range (maybe waterpump).
