I have a 1998 Boxter with 59,000 miles, automatic tiptronic transmission. I usually have the vehicle hand washed, however each time I'm in hurry, I take it through the car wash it will sputter and stall. It will usually start after holding down the accelerator after a few minutes but the check engine light will go on.
The last time I took it to my mechanic he said the car wash had nothing to do with it and he replaced my spark plugs and the air oil separator.
I trusted his advice and now that its been repaired, I had to take it to the car wash and it happened again. Is it the water getting into the air intake?
