Questions About 2018 Porsche 718 Boxster’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Porsche? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Porsche? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your 718 Boxster towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my 718 Boxster's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Porsche 718 Boxster transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Porsche. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Porsche 718 Boxster? Yes. Porsche 718 Boxster transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
  • Who can fix my  Porsche 718 Boxster transmission leak? Look to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for 718 Boxster transmission system diagnostics and repairs. Schedule an appointment online today.
  • Is it okay to drive a 718 Boxster with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your 718 Boxster to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
