315-horsepower 3.4L H6 7-speed automated manual RWD
| 9000 mi US $247 |
Replaced leaking oil pressure sensor. |
| 36000 mi US $1500 |
Oil pressure valve leaking, oil wicked into DME, needed replacement. Valve was replaced once before after one year of ownership, approx 4,000 miles. Needed to drop engine and replace wire harness and DME. Dealer absorbed most of cost. |
| 29000 mi | The check engine light came on but the computer said it was OK to drive. I took it in and the dealership said it was a computer glitch that gave a vacuum sensor error. They reset the computer and did a software refresh. |
| 40000 mi | Lastly, I had noticed a couple times where the key wouldn't release smoothly from the ignition. As I figured, they could not duplicate the problem; it's very intermittent. |
| 10040 mi US $35 |
Pinhole leak on the driver side muffler. It was a defect from the factory, not damage induced. Spot welded the pinhole leak. (it was in the weld). |
| 5000 mi | Check Engine Light due to faulty evap pump. |

2013 Porsche Boxster 2dr Convertible
315-horsepower 3.4L H6 6-speed manual RWD
| 2000 mi | The car was leaking a fluid in my garage. The fluid was dark so I assumed it was oil. However, the dealer looked at my car and they believe it was coolant and that that can happen from time to time. So normal. |
| 2800 mi | Engine would stall during operation of the vehicle. A crank sensor spacer was added to my vehicle. Cars manufactured after September 2013 have the spacer in place. My car was manufactured prior to September 2013. Could not get the car to start, crank but no compression noises. Going to tow, then 2nd mechanic called, said push the clutch and accelerator to the floor and try to start it for 1.5 minutes. Started after 1.5 minutes. Known rare prob, unknown cause. |
| 16400 mi | Throttle assy. replaced because of bad poteniometer. |
| 26000 mi | coil failure replaced under warranty |
| 5200 mi | Modified fuel filler |

Oil Leak. Technician installed wrong drain plug washer causing over tightening and damage to threads in oil pan |
