Most common problems:

Oil leaks

Porsche 911 engines, especially older models, are known for developing oil leaks, often from the rear main seal or valve cover gaskets.

Ims bearing failure

The intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing in some Porsche 911 models, including those around 2008, can fail and cause significant engine damage.

Coolant leaks

Coolant leaks can occur due to aging hoses, water pump failure, or cracked coolant reservoirs.

Cylinder scoring

Scoring of the cylinder walls can lead to decreased performance and increased oil consumption.

Fuel injection issues

Problems with the fuel injection system can cause rough idling, poor fuel economy, and engine misfires.

Timing chain tensioner failure

Failure of the timing chain tensioner can lead to improper timing and potential engine damage.

Spark plug fouling

Because of the high performance nature of the engine, spark plugs can foul more frequently, leading to misfires and poor performance.

Vacuum leaks

Vacuum leaks can cause a rough idle, stalling, and poor fuel economy.
