Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The 2006 Porsche Cayman is known to sometimes experience oil leaks, particularly from the rear main seal and the intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing seal.

Ims bearing failure

The intermediate shaft bearing is a known weak point in earlier Porsche engines, including the 2006 Cayman, which can lead to catastrophic engine failure if not addressed.

Coolant leaks

Coolant leaks from the coolant reservoir or hoses are also common in this model and can lead to overheating if not fixed promptly.

Air-oil separator failure

This part can fail and cause excessive oil consumption or smoke from the exhaust, typical in the 2006 Cayman.

Timing chain tensioner issues

The timing chain tensioner can wear out or fail, leading to noisy operation and potential engine damage if not replaced.

Fuel injector problems

Fuel injectors can get clogged or fail, causing rough idling, poor fuel economy, and misfires in the engine.
