Porsche Boxster and Cayman models, particularly those produced before 2005, are known for several common failure points. One notable concern involves the intermediate shaft (IMS) bearing, which, if not addressed, can lead to catastrophic engine failure. Additionally, some early models have experienced issues with cracked or slipped cylinder liners, causing coolant leaks and compromising engine integrity. The porous engine block is another identified problem, leading to coolant seepage and overheating. These issues highlight the importance of meticulous maintenance, including routine inspections for leaks and addressing them promptly. While advancements and improvements have been made in later model years, enthusiasts often recommend proactive measures, such as retrofitting upgraded IMS bearings. Regular maintenance and addressing issues early can contribute to the longevity and reliability of these high-performance sports cars.
