991.1 Turbo S - Turbo issue

I’ve had my Turbo S now for 10 months and loved every drive. As many have posted, it is an amazing car.

I have noticed however an occasional lack of Turbo boost where the cars acceleration has been flat.

Today I took it to Millbrook for a driver training day. After a few quick runs the Turbo cut out completely. No visual warning lights and no under car evidence of an issue.

We quit the training immediately and I drove the car home at a steady pace. the Turbo boost has come back but it’s going straight into Porsche to get fixed. I wondered if anyone else has experienced similar issues?

Sounds like the turbo actuator
had this go on mine
all fixed under warranty


Yes, I had the Turbo Actuator fail too, the symptoms on mine were a noisier exhaust & under full throttle the Turbo boost only reached about 0.4 bar.
There were no warning lights up at all.

All fixed under warranty.
