Overheating
Porsche Boxster 2001 porsche boxster 2.7l 137000 miles
Constantly overheating. New thermostat, radiators cleaned, (has 2), system flushed. I think it has an electrical problem which causes it, but im a girl what do i know. Gonna do the coolant vaccum and hope that works. Should have been a recall but no. I dont think the heads blown cracked. Im the 11th owner it was a lease car so rode hard put away wet. Any suggestions

Well still not resolved. !I didn’t realize it took 9 gallons of antifreeze. I’m loathe to put it in just to have it come back out. Still working on it. Drove some today. Didn’t overheat but didn’t go too far. Still checking the electrical system as well. Might be heater hose related gonna check that as well.

I have the same car and the previous owners didn't maintain anything. My over heating turned out to be a bad water pump. My brother in Florida did most of my work So I used AutoZone for the water pump. I would also check fuses C8 and C10. That's the 3rd row from the top and on the right side. I would pull the fuses and shine a light on it. It's hard to tell otherwise.
