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.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just spent 5 hrs behind the wheel of the 996 , And it is the first time I have noticed the luggage in the frunk was warm, You could nearly call it hot , Temp gauge in the car sat just a smidge over the 80 mark, The .2 was in 2.5 _3000 rpm most of the time and performed effortlessly  as usual, Any one else noticed this? The outside temp was hovering around 36 C.

POST 2Original post

Yep, don't put the butter and cheese in there on the grocery run 😲

POST 3Original post

I wouldn’t be concerned Tomo, it was pretty hot today, only a piece of sheet metal separating the baking sun from your luggage and no air getting into the frunk. Temp gauge sounds about normal.

Yes Cheers @Stepo Have been back in the car since the long stint all things are good  , Just it was the first time the frunk and what it containened suffered from heat transfer.

POST 5Original post

Thought that due to the radiators, that are either side, also added to the heat. Have done trips away too, and luggage is toasty when unloading.

POST 6Original post

😄 Do not get a Lotus Elise and but stuff in the boot. If you think the frunk gets hot...!

POST 7Original post

I've noticed that the frunk of the 996 is noticeably warmer than the 986 Boxster (boot gets as warm as the 996 frunk). For the temp gauge like yours sits just above 80 most days.

POST 8Original post

What colour is the car in question? If is black/dark, I suspect that letting it just sit in the sun with the motor not running would result in the same outcome.

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Yeh Na I have had the car for a couple of years and fairly familiar with its behaviour and habits it is very unusual for the car to get  this hot ,  It was 39c which is damn hot 🔥 but has been in that temp before never bothered it, Radiator flush and coolent change in order me thinks. Oh and my Porka is Basalt Black
