Most common problems:

Oil leaks

The Porsche 718 Boxster, particularly older models, can develop oil leaks from areas such as the rear main seal or valve cover gaskets.

Coolant issues

The cooling system can sometimes have leaks or failures, leading to overheating problems.

Engine misfires

Ignition coils or spark plugs may fail, causing engine misfires and decreased performance.

Timing chain problems

The timing chain tensioners can wear out, leading to timing issues and potential engine damage.

Direct injection issues

Carbon buildup on the intake valves is a common problem with direct injection engines, which can cause rough idling and performance loss.

Turbocharger wear

The turbocharger in these models can wear out over time, leading to decreased power and efficiency.

Pcv valve failure

The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) valve can fail, causing oil consumption issues and potential engine performance problems.
