Starting my Box
Still getting to know my Boxster and have a couple of questions:
1. While it starts up beautifully and sounds great, it does emit a fairly large cloud of smoke (greyish) and has a heavy gas smell. Only lasts a second or two, idle feels smooth. Is this maybe normal for a higher performance vehicle? Or is it cause I have the roof down and I just notice it more? 2. As far as parking it in my garage - is it better, or does it matter, if it's parked with the top up or down? Better to close it to stretch it out and avoid lines in the top, but then I'm opening and closing it more and that will wear out the parts quicker. What's better? I usually only drive it with the top down. Thanks |

What he said :)
How many miles are on the car? |
It's an 02 with just over 140,000kms on it (approx. 87,000 miles?). I understood though if it was injector related, it would most likely cause some rough idling and possible misfires? Idles and runs smooth - although I have noticed the fuel economy is slightly low (computer shows 23.5 MPG) Expected slightly higher as it's mostly highway miles.
