Porsche 928 Problems
Monitor warning lights and inspect brakes
Pay close attention to warning lights and have the brakes inspected regularly—immediately address any brake problems. Hard driving habits will cause excessive brake pad and rotor wear.
Timing belt inspection and adjustment
Timing belt life cannot be ascertained by inspection only. The timing belt and water pump must be maintained using the correct belt-adjustment tool.
Air leaks from intake manifold
Intake air leaks at the manifold and elsewhere are common.
"No start" due to fuel pump or ECM failure
A failing ECM or a fuel pump issue can cause a "No Start" condition.

Porsche 928 Reviews
A German "muscle car", of sorts. Have had 2, and they are unbelievable fun.
A great car for around town or trips to L.A.Generally people love the styling , though some hate it!By contemporary standards this a real eye catcher.Anyhow , a bit of a chore to keep up with service needs.Engine is a great performer but tempermental at times.For a large car the handlig is great.If you like going fast , tire life can be disappointing.Very comfortable for two , climate control is fully up to the task.Sort of an overlooked gem in its time.They can be a great buy today.Buy the latest model you can , problems were resolved in the later years of production.A real joy to own.
