Now my question is.. did the coolant drop out at the red light???

I had that happen to my boxster at a redlight.. white steam/smoke comming out of my taillights.. and the car dropped the coolent.

It was towed to The Porsche Exchange. A $70 part broke, the "transcoolant valve" which from what I understand is a valve that regulates the flow of coolant into and out of the engine. Cost me $600 to fix.. they fixed it and pressure checked the system... then my water pump went when they pressure checked the system.. cast me another $1500 total for the pump and labor.
