Known issues for the 987.1 Boxster and Cayman
- IMS bearing failure. The 2005-2008 (987.1) Boxster and Cayman keep the M96/M97 intermediate shaft and its bearing; most from 2006 have the larger single-row bearing, which fails less often than the 986's but cannot be replaced without opening the engine. Early cars may have the smaller, serviceable bearing: the engine serial number tells which. The 2009-on 987.2 cars use the 9A1 engine, which has no IMS bearing; some late 2008 cars may already have it, so check the engine number rather than the model year. Affects 987.1 Boxster, Boxster S, Cayman, Cayman S (M96/M97 engines), 2005-2008. Not the 987.2 (9A1)..Likely
- Bore scoring. Cylinder wall scoring shows as oil consumption, smoke and a ticking noise. Specialists recommend a borescope inspection before purchase, more so on the larger S engines. Affects 987.1 M96/M97 engines..Likely
- Rear main seal (RMS) leak. Oil seeping from the crankshaft rear main seal, as on the 986. Affects 987.1 M96/M97 engines..Likely
