Thanks for the information. I am not sure what I am going to do with it yet. I'd like to take it to a shop but the Army doesn't pay me enough to do that just yet. Just going to let it sit until I figure out what I am going to do with it. The idiot in me wants to take it to the auto shop on base and just start pulling things apart, but I need to take it to someone that knows that they are doing. I've had mixed luck in my auto endeavors and having never worked on a Porsche it would be a disaster.

what options do you think I have for it? This is my first Porsche and iv only had it about 9 months. If all else fails I plan on just keeping it til I can afford to upgrade the motor.

Metal fillings in the filter. I guess that's pretty much solves it.

Thank you both for the response, it sounds more like a internal engine thing but I am going to lift it and see about the stethoscope thing. Thanks again.

Ok I have a 2001 Boxster Base, 2.7L. For week or two my car has made a slight rattling sound, but had no ryhme or reason. I thought maybe something was loose somewhere. Now it has turned into a full on knocking in what sounds like inside the engine. It is rpm dependent, but will sort of skip knocks too. Almost like if you put a marble in a dryer. I have no CEL on, but I plugged in my sensor and came out with CEL P1411 P0410. The CEL light does come on in the light test during start up, so it looks to be working. So my question is, is my engine about to be blown or is there someway one of these valves in the air injection system could be making such a loud knock. Is the knocking or this CEL unrelated? I see these CEL's are not uncommon, but I do not see anything that is accompanied by a knock. Thanks for any information. Tyler.
