Problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction
The DBS system in the Porsche 911 may fail to activate properly, leading to reduced braking assistance during emergencies.
Engine misfire
The 6-cylinder engine may experience misfires due to issues with spark plugs, ignition coils, or fuel injectors, leading to rough idling and reduced performance.
Oil leaks
The engine may develop oil leaks from the valve cover gaskets or oil pan, leading to low oil levels and potential engine damage if not addressed.
Overheating
The engine cooling system may fail due to faulty radiators, water pumps, or thermostats, causing the engine to overheat and potentially leading to severe engine damage.
Turbocharger issues
For turbocharged models, the turbocharger may develop problems such as bearing failure or boost leaks, resulting in reduced power and efficiency.
Timing chain tensioner failure
The timing chain tensioner may fail, leading to improper timing and potential engine damage.
Carbon buildup
Direct injection engines may suffer from carbon buildup on intake valves, leading to reduced performance and fuel efficiency.
Faulty sensors
Various engine sensors, such as the oxygen sensor or mass airflow sensor, may fail, resulting in poor engine performance and increased emissions.
Exhaust system problems
Issues with the exhaust system, such as a failing catalytic converter or exhaust leaks, can lead to poor performance and increased emissions.

Timing chain tensioner failure
This can lead to improper timing and potentially severe engine damage if the chain slips or breaks.
Air-oil separator issues
Failure of the air-oil separator can cause excessive oil consumption and smoke from the exhaust.
Fuel injector problems
Clogged or failing fuel injectors can lead to poor engine performance and fuel efficiency.
Turbocharger issues (if equipped)
Turbocharged models may experience turbo failure or boost leaks, affecting engine power and performance.
Vacuum leaks
Leaks in the vacuum system can cause rough idling, stalling, and reduced engine efficiency.
