Thank you for your thoughts and comments. Sorry for the delay, life and work...So, I have some interesting updates. The fumes were stronger on the driver's side than passenger in the cabin. But, the fumes were nonexistent on the driver's side intake and tailpipes. Extremely strong at the passenger's side intake. While on the way back to the indy it threw a CEL with a ton of codes. Indy opened the top of the engine to discover that there had been a fire. In retrospect, i can tell you when the fire occurred. It was a week or two before i originally posted. The fumes were present for months and several hours of drive time prior to the fire. I do not think the fire was the cause of the fumes. I believe the source of the fumes may point to what caused the fire.
Has anyone heard of a Boxster catching on fire in this manner? Any thoughts on the cause?
