Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello I have an 02 Boxster with 99km on it. Im starting to experience loss of power and hesitation throughout the band. I dont believe the spark plugs have been changed by the previous owner and it has not by me. So Im wondering if it is the sparkplugs that can do that if so am I able to change it myself. Also Ive heard there are no wires that need to be changed when changing the plugs. Let me know what the issue could be please. Thanks
