Most common problems:

Brake fade

Overheating of the braking system can reduce its efficiency, especially under heavy use, which is critical for a performance car like the Porsche 718 Boxster.

Vacuum leaks

The turbocharged engine in the 718 Boxster relies on a tight vacuum system. Leaks can lead to reduced performance and fuel efficiency.

Carbon build-up

Direct injection engines, like the one in the 718 Boxster, can suffer from carbon deposits on intake valves, leading to poor performance and misfires.

Engine overheating

High-performance engines can sometimes suffer from overheating issues, especially if the cooling system is not maintained properly.

Turbocharger issues

The turbocharger in the 718 Boxster can experience wear and tear over time, potentially leading to reduced boost and performance issues.

Electrical problems

Modern vehicles, including the 718 Boxster, have complex electrical systems that can suffer from faults, leading to various issues such as starting problems or warning lights.

Oil leaks

Engine oil leaks are a common problem in many high-performance vehicles, including the Porsche 718 Boxster, which can lead to reduced engine lubrication and potential damage.

Suspension wear

The suspension components in a high-performance car like the 718 Boxster can wear out more quickly due to the stresses of spirited driving, leading to handling issues.
