2008 Boxster...I wanted to check Variocam solenoids because my Boxster dosen't seem to have as much power as it should. When activating the cams with Durametric there wasn't any change in the engine note. When I activated valve lift I did hear a change in the engine. No CEL's... Is there anything I'm missing? Update....I just went for a test drive and seems everything is normalo(almost] I'll attribute it to new coils and plugs and new altenator.. I have a CEL for ambient temp ...car had front impact so I think it's the sensor in the bumper. There were many faults in the durametric having to do with voltage issues I cleared them hoping they had just popped up cause I had a bad altenator. Thanks V

These cars are very sensitive to voltage differences due to either battery or alternator issues, so both need to be in good nick before trying to address unusual codes.
