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.

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

POST 1Original post

The only worry that I have about the new Cayman is potential heat generated by the engine in the small interior. Any extra heat could be a problem where I live. Can we request that those who get to experience the Cayman in real time provide feedback?

POST 2Original post

if that is the case i'm taking heated seats off my order list...lol

POST 3Original post

My NSX had a similar engine location and horsepower output (from slightly less displacement). I never had any problems at all with cockpit heating. It's extremely unlikely that Porsche would risk this kind of negative get into the marketplace.

POST 4Original post

I gotta believe it's the same a Boxster,and Boxsterowners on this board report that it's not a problem.

Motor Trend had this to say: <p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Our compliant list is way short. [/quote]A bit of heat soaks into the cabin if the car sits at idle for long periods of time. [/quote]It’s nothing objectionable, or that the A/C can’t handle, but you may notice it when parked with the windows up.

POST 6Original post

Porsche would have had to put some heat proof material between the engine and the trunk. In my Boxster S, the rear trunk is where you would put your take away pizza as it get rather warm in there. THere is no way that the Cayman S would have the same configuration back there.

POST 7Original post

I'm just hoping my clear engine cover won't let too much heat in. /fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/confused_smile.gif

<p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">Coincidently, I received my November issue of Automobile magazine today. This quote is bit off-putting if true “It’s warm work, though, as the engine behind you heats up the cabin noticeably”. <p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">My poor experience with some of the early ‘70’s 911’s poor air conditioning is not something I want to repeat. Hopefully this will not be an issue. Perhaps our friend in Ibiza can report back?

POST 9Original post

My dealer just got back from Ibiza. He didn't notice any engine heat in the cockpit. He said the other driver in the car was 6'4' and had the seat all the way back to the bulkhead and never complained of heat either. Is it possible the magazines got earlier pre-production cars and the ones in Spain have addressed the issue?
