Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The Porsche Boxster, especially earlier models, is known for developing oil leaks from the rear main seal and the intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing.

Ims bearing failure

The Intermediate Shaft (IMS) bearing can fail, which may lead to catastrophic engine damage if not addressed. This is a known issue in Porsche engines of this era.

Cooling system issues

The Boxster can experience problems with the water pump and the coolant reservoir, leading to potential overheating.

Rms (rear main seal) failure

The rear main seal can develop leaks, causing oil to drip and potentially leading to clutch contamination.

Air-oil separator failure

A faulty air-oil separator can lead to excessive oil consumption and smoke from the exhaust.

Fuel system problems

Issues with the fuel injectors and fuel pump can lead to poor engine performance and starting problems.
