Honestly I can't be sure. It was late at night.

DAY 1.

:confused:

+1 on what Bypro said, can't say I'm not intrigued though.....
Do you have a website for this stuff?

Sorry for lack of updates. The shop is backed up so I'll have to wait until Monday to hear anything.

I'm glad I'm not alone in finding the dipstick oil level hard to read. By far the hardest of any vehicle I have owned. Thanks for posting the paper towel trick. I am always nervous that the plastic end of the dipstick will get brittle and drop pieces into the crankcase!

Good Newwwwws everyone! (At least regarding the Boxster)
The garage test drove the car and ran tests on the oil and coolant and found nothing wrong with it. They passed off the incident as just being one of those times a Boxster blows some smoke. Oil was less than a half quart low.
I picked it up and no charge for checking it over.

However on the way there, the Jeep began to boil over and so I had the Porsche shop check it out. Cracked head (which apparently the 4.0 jeep engines are very prone to).
So to recap:
Porsche: Fine.
Jeep: Awaiting a new head at the shop.

Crazy day to say the least.

whew! P-car to the rescue...

Hmmm,

Repairing the head of the Jeep at the Porsche specialty shop sounds fancy...

I anticipate a flurry of dipstick sales ahead...:dance:

Glad to hear the news on the Porsche, it could of been much more ugly. Sit back, drink a beer, and get over the cracked Jeep head......life happens.

Amazing how much I've been able to rely on the Boxsters. Out of all the vehicles I've owned over the last 15 years, I think they've been the most dependable. (Besides my old Nissan truck and '73 Beetle).
In all honesty, My P-Indy is no higher on labor than any other good shop around here, and he's really good. Doesn't hurt that he also has a jeep hobby on the side and knows almost as much about them as Porsches. ;)
Still it does sound fancy. LOL!

Thanks coreseller, you're right! :)
