ride with a friend in his 997 C4 tip today. he uses quite a lot 'engine brake' and was saying 'i'm gonna look after this baby...' my question: is engine brake good for the car? bad for the car or doesnt really matter? apart from that, i do know it's fun doing that way. ;) gaoo

i've noticed several times when i start the engine there's a large puff of blue smoke from the exhaust. it would clear after a few seconds. happened maybe 4 or 5 times in the last 12 months. is there something i need to be worried about? thanks gaoo

thanks for the help. those problems i'm experiencing now are actually after the module been replaced with a new one. i just wonder if they are caused by incomplete programming of the new module. gaoo

hi there, i'm a newby to this forum. i need help for my 97 boxster 2.5 tiptronic. my boxster's engine failed on a rainning day, it was towed to a local car electrician and had the fuel pump and the control module (M531) replaced, and re-programmed. after i got the car back, i have expeirenced a few problems since: central locking doesnt work with my remote (aftermarket), nor my keys, nor the central locking button. I have to lock my car with emergency locking method ( turn the key 3 times) or key lock each door individually. I'm able to use the remote control to unlock though. when i press the remote button, side lights do come up though no horn sound. other problems are: driver side window doesnt drop a little when i open the door; sometimes it does drop a bit once the hendle is pulled (both from inside and outside) but as soon as i release the handle, it goes up straight away; the interior light doesnt ligh up when doors are opened, only lights up when i manually set it to 'always on' position; I would like to know if above are related to the reprogramming of the control module, or could it be something else. I was told by the auto electrician that the driver side door lock unit may need to be replcaed. would this be the solution or? (btw, i was charged AU$2,500 by him for the job he did) Maybe i'm wrong, but i have the feeling that all these problems are something to do with the programming. everything were working fine before. any advice will be very much appreciated. gaoo
