I have a cheap scanner and I pulled a p1530 code off my 99 boxster today. Can any one tell me the meaning. The car is running near perfect, but sel is on. Thanks for any help
P1530: Camshaft Adjustment, Bank 1

Are there any other codes or just that one?

I would reset the code and see if it comes back.

This code is caused by either faulty wiring or a bad VarioCam actuator but it's not worth worrying about that yet.

Thanks for the info. I will reset it. I just changed the oil and laid out the filter to inspect and it was completely clean, only 2 specs were shining. Could this have any relation to IMS starting to go. Car has 38,000 mi

Two tiny specks would be pretty normal. If the IMS is starting to go, there'd be a LOT more. As my mechanic described it, your filter would look like a star filled night on a clear night.

Gosh I sure wish Pedro move up to north central fl. I cant find any indy in my area.
up here because he wouldn't have to drive with the roof up in summer because of the heat and humidity in Florida.
Sure....and he'd be out of work for half the year eye rolling smiley *NM*
