Won't Continuously turn over
 
As if my Boxster doesn't already have enough problems it seems there's a new one. The latest thing its doing is not continuously turning over when being started.
When you turn the key it turns over 1 or 2 or sometimes 3 times then stops turning over. If you turn the key off it does the same thing again. It won't continuously turn over though.
I tested the starter and solenoid and they are fine.

Is this a common issue? I know the ignitions are crap in these cars, does this sometimes happen when they go? Is there a relay that could be causing this?

You have load tested the battery I'm sure.

I tested the battery and it tested fine. Then I pulled the battery from my Daily Driver and the Porsche still did the same thing with that battery.

Was a bad ground on the engine. Cleaned it up and car turns over. All fixed

Cool deal. I mention this in the battery section or the starter section of the new Boxster book!
