MAF is a possibility, especially when you add in the K & N variant. Just wait to see what the mechanic says. Good Luck!...

On most other sites I have read ( such as pca.org, search "Boxster cylinder liner", the slipped sleeve problem is a model year 99 problem (something like those manufactured 9/98 to 3/99). Some 98 models suffered from porous blocks.


In any case, porous blocks and slipped sleeves usually show up very early in the car's life.
