I believe your year Boxster has the "improved" or updated version of the AOS. Do a search for AOS and you should find a clear explanation of how to identify the difference between the two versions. Here is a link to Mike Focke's Boxster Pages that will explain everything you might ever want to know about the AOS and that also shows you the install procedure and a couple of photos that show the difference between the two versions: http://mike.focke.googlepages.com/airoilseparatorreplacement The early versions are a repair waiting to happen, while the later ones are not as problematic. Regards, Maurice. Thank you all. Sorry for the inappropriate posting.

Hi All, No doubt this has already been answered but hear tis.. I have a 2003 Boxster with approx 30K miles. I'm going in for my 30K maintanance soon (shudder) and wondered if I should have the AOS looked at/replaced ? The is no smoke from the exhaust under most all driving conditions including an occasional Auto-X. However, I've noticed that if the car sits for a several days (5 days the last time) it will belch out quite a bit of thick bluish-white smoke on startup. This only lasts for a second or two. Mind you, the motor fires right up without any trouble and goes through it's normal initial idle program. I'm tending to think this is "normal" but any insight would be helpful. Thanks.
