This notice applies to your vehicle:
WP0
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and
Motor Vehicle Safety Act. Porsche has decided that a defect that relates
to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2021 Model Year Porsche 718
Spyder, Cayman GT4, Boxster GTS 4.0 and Cayman GTS 4.0 vehicles.
You received this notice because our records, which are based primarily on
state registration and title data, indicate that you are the current owner of
a vehicle affected by this recall.
What is the issue?
On the affected vehicles, there is a possibility that connecting rods that
were not manufactured according to specification are installed in your
vehicle. If threaded joints on the engine connecting rods loosen over
time, you may hear unusual engine noise and the oil pressure warning
in the instrument cluster could illuminate. If the engine continues to be
operated, severe engine damage, including potential for sudden loss of
power, which increases the risk of a crash, or fire could occur.
What should you do?
You can continue to use your vehicle until
the remedy has been carried out. Porsche
recommends against use on race tracks or under
high load.
Please wait for our follow up letter to bring
your vehicle in for a remedy, however, if in the
meantime you hear unusual noises coming from
the engine compartment or the oil pressure
warning in the instrument cluster illuminates,
please immediately park your vehicle and contact
Porsche Customer Support or your authorized
Porsche dealer by phone.

Important Information
Overview
On the affected vehicles, there is a possibility that connecting rods that were not manufactured
according to specification are installed in the engine.
A potential defect in the surface of the connecting rod could lead to cracks, creating a loss of preload
on the connecting rod screw connection.
Loosening of connecting rod screw connection while driving at high loads can lead to potential engine
damage, stalling, loss of power and potential oil leakage from a damaged engine block.
Porsche will replace the engine in the affected vehicles.
As parts arrive to your dealer, please arrange for this measure to be carried out
immediately on the
affected vehicles.

AMA4 – Replacing or Repairing Engine (Stop Delivery/Recall Campaign)
Vehicle Type: 718 Spyder (982) / 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 (982)
718 Cayman GT4 (982) / 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 (982)
Model Year: 2021
Equipment: • Engine type DWAA
• Engine type DWAB
• Engine type DWAC
• Engine type DWAD
• Engine type DKDA
• Engine type DKDC
Concerns: Connecting rod bolts
Information: Connecting rods that were not manufactured according to specificationsmay have been
installed in the engines of the affected vehicles. We cannot therefore rule out the possibility of
the connecting rod bolts loosening over the service life of the vehicle.
If this happens, you may hear noises from the crank drive while driving and the oil pressure warning in the
instrument would come on. If the customer continues to drive the vehicle, however, oil can start leaking
from the engine, and engine damage cannot be ruled out.
Action required: • Replacing engine
• Replace vehicle-specific stickers showing the allocation of vehicle identification number to engine
number
Information
For parts availability reasons, only the campaign scope “Replacing engine” is available for vehicles that
have already been delivered to customers (Scope 1 – Scope 10).
Affected
Vehicles:
Only vehicles assigned to the campaign (see also PCSS Vehicle Information). This campaign affects 190
vehicles.

2 Carry out an extended test drive according to the criteria for a test drive during the sales check.
Observe the following specifications during the extended test drive:
• Only allow service advisors or workshop staff with the relevant qualification and experience
(e.g. workshop managers) to test-drive the vehicle.
• The vehicle should be driven for a distance of approx. 12 miles with a normal driving
profile.
• Do not exceed a maximum engine speed of 6,500 rpm.
• Check the vehicle for unusual handling behavior, vibrations and noise.
On vehicles with PDK transmission, also pay particular attention to the following points:
• Only drive with the selector lever in position “D”.
• Do not drive in kickdown mode in order to ensure that a maximum engine speed of 6,500
rpm is not exceeded.
3 After the test drive, let the vehicle cool down until the coolant temperature is max. 60 °C. Then
check the coolant level and engine-oil level and add coolant or engine oil as required.
4 Create vehicle analysis log (VAL) using the PIWIS Tester.
Mark the vehicle analysis log you have just created with the attribute “Final VAL” and after carrying
out the campaign, return it using the PIWIS Tester.
5 Disconnect the PIWIS Tester from the vehicle.
6 Switch off and disconnect the battery charger.
7 Raise the vehicle on a lifting platform again and check the engine for leaks or other problems.
8 Enter the campaign in the Warranty and Maintenance booklet.
