Common Problem
Active Engine/Transmission Mount Failures
One of the most frequently mentioned issues with the 2018 Porsche 911 is the failure of the active engine or transmission mounts. This problem, often indicated by a PADM (Porsche Active Drivetrain Mount) fault, seems to be relatively common among 911 models. The issue arises when water enters the mount and corrodes the electromagnetic coil, leading to failures. While this doesn't immediately affect drivability as the mounts function passively, it does require attention and can be expensive to fix if not under warranty.
Chassis System Faults
Another issue that has been reported, although more commonly in newer models like the Panamera, is the "Chassis System Fault" warning. This can sometimes be attributed to software glitches or faulty sensors, and while it might not directly affect the 911, it's worth noting as a potential electronic issue across Porsche models. Owners have had mixed experiences with resolving this issue, ranging from simple resets to engaging in lemon law proceedings for unresolved problems.
Engine Issues
There are reports of engine-related problems, such as overheating cylinders, which can lead to significant damage if not addressed promptly. However, these instances seem less frequent and may be covered under warranty depending on the circumstances.
General Reliability and Maintenance Costs
The 2018 Porsche 911 is generally considered reliable, but maintenance costs can be high. Routine services like brake replacements are notably more expensive than those for other vehicles, even when performed by independent mechanics. Despite these costs, many owners report their Porsches being dependable daily drivers and performing well under track conditions.
Recommendations for Prospective Buyers
For those considering purchasing a used 2018 Porsche 911, it's advisable to ensure that any potential vehicle comes with a comprehensive service history and possibly an extended warranty to cover unexpected repairs. Engaging with a reputable mechanic familiar with Porsche vehicles can also help mitigate long-term maintenance expenses.
