Questions About 2006 Porsche Boxster’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Porsche's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Porsche tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Boxster towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Boxster is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Boxster's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Porsche Boxster transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Porsche, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Porsche Boxster transmission fluid leak? Yes. Porsche Boxster transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Where can I get my  Porsche Boxster transmission fixed? When your Boxster transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Should I avoid driving my Porsche Boxster if there is 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 Boxster to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
