  1. Sorry to hear that you are experiencing the same problem! I don't have any further info, than I previoulsy reported. The local dealer told me they found fault code P1508 (Torque Monitoring Comparison) and their only solution was to replace the DME. I have slowed down... how ofter I drive it, and how fast I accelerate in first gear. I've never had it happen in any other gear. Creighton SkankTees
  2. Had the dealer checked it out, today, and they reported a fault code P1508 Torque Monitoring Comparison. Their solution was to replace the DME "per Porsche a TSB"... I didn't.
  3. Had a CEL due to MAF, a few months back, which conveniently came right as I was ready to add a CAI. Took care of that then (I think). I experienced the problem again today, at a place where I could just pull off the raod and investigate. Turns out the engine had not died, at all, but I virtually lost throttle response. The engine was running idle, and all electronics still running, but when I hit the throttle the engine only revs up 100-200 rpms. Restarting the car clears it.
  4. I have been having an intermittent issue with my '02 Boxster S, where it will cut off the engine during hard acceleration, typically above 4000 rpms. It kind of feels like I have hit the rev limiter due to the abrupt loss of drive, but hitting the clutch and grabbing another gear does no good. The engine has died, and so far, the only solution I've found is to turn the ignition off and restart the car (while you are coasting in traffic). Not cool! It does not appear to be the electrical system cutting off, just the engine, as near as I can tell. I'm usually in a bit of a panic to get it restarted and moving, again. Anybody else seen this, or have any ideas?
  5. Hey Stefan! Anything further on this? I'm curious to know if you found a faulty MAF, or if maybe the intake was "fouling" it somehow?
