Need HELP in INDY stranded
 

My 2001 boxster s has overheated 150 miles from home in Indianapolis. I think thermostat stuck over heated and then blew a hose. My pelican manual at home and no tools. This is the first time I have had any trouble in the 3 years I have owned my car. Any ideas are appreciated. Planning an expensive rollback ride home at present.

Got it home. Now I need to know what this part is.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1432686120.jpg

If this is a Tiptronic transmission car (it is always a good idea to include the car year, model and how it is equipped in a post), that is the control valve for the transmission oil cooler.
