Good day, I have a 2006 Boxster S and check engine light came on yesterday and it said visit workshop. Then later that day, the engine starting to almost stall in 1st and 2nd gear. Then this morning when I turned it on, a white smoke with very very bad smell came out of exhaust for about 5 min and the engine would stutter up and down. Called the dealer and they said have it towed in!

Pretty depressing so far as I have only had this for 2 months. It's certified pre-owned and I do have a couple years in waranty but hope this is nothing big?
