  1. Depending on milage, I'd bet what you are seeing is on the outside from sand and rocks and such. If you look at just about any 10 year old car with miles on it you'll see the same. It looks worse at night, especialy when dirty. You can try to polish them out, but I've never been completely satified that way. Only thing I know to do is to replace the windshield. I didn't realize how bad theglass was in my 2001 Beetle until I replaced it, was amaizing.

    Where you at in GA? I'm just across the river from Augusta. Chuck

    Gainesville next to Lake Lainer, thanks for your experience

  2. Hey,

    I have a 1998 Boxster with windshield issues. In the direct sunlight there are hundreds of reflections thought the glass. I have polished the exterior of the glass and have been able to remove the wiper scratches, but the reflections are still there. I am guessing that the interior coating is deteriorating and causing the reflections. Is there a cure for this other than replacement?

    Regards,

  3. I have P1128 and P1130 on my 1998 Boxster and have read many informative posts on these CEL’s. My investigation indicated the following: leaking oil filer tube, some oil in “J” tube and throttle body. I replaced AOS, “J” tube, oil filler tube, cleaned MAF and throttle body. Posts on this repair/replacement where very helpful, unfortunately I still have those pesky CEL’s. Below I have listed the Freeze Frame data via my Actron ODBII reader on the latest recurrence.

    Frame 1 Mod $17

    DTC that caused freeze frame P1130

    Engine RPM 2897

    I do not have any experience with this data, but it appears the trim 3 and 4 percentages are a problem. I would appreciate any assistance and guidance.

    :thankyou:

  4. Hello all,

    My 98 Boxster has recently developed a problem with fueling at the gas station. While pumping gas I get a back pressure that stops the nozzle. I can only fill the tank by very slowly metering the gas flow. Is there a vent that is blocked?

    Things I have tried:

    checked fuse E6 and it's ok

    taped the phone connector under the console

    tried different gas stations

    All suggestion are appreciated.

    Regards,

    Khoov
