On the last day too before expiry. :). Took it for a one hour drive trying to get the last code (catalyst) to register. First half hour of drive no dice. Last leg back did around 2500 rpms at 4th gear for like 10 minutes straight. Did the trick...drove straight to the state Inspection station and the fun began. First guy told me to get outta the car and stand by the side of the building (while other folks with their cars could stay in their cars in the pass seat)...not sure why. Then, he starts my car and revs it a bit. Not sure why. Then, he takes my car on the dyno to rev it some more. None of the other cars get this treatment. Hmmmm. Then, another dude who weighed about 500 lbs decided he wanted to sit in my car too just for fun. I didn't know someone that big could fit in the car, but I was wrong. Now, I'm always glad if someone admires my old Boxster, but I honestly thought he was gonna rip open my leather seat when he got out of the car after his big grin on his face. At least he had a good time. First guy gets back in the car, drives her forward and then tells me I'm all set. Well, she passed, and I won't have to go again for another 2 yrs. the P1411 cel hasn't resurfaced so I'll chalk it up to an anomaly. Thanks to everyone for the tips on how to get all the readiness monitors active.
