Sounds like the starter solenoid is slow to retract, happened on my 4S. Easy job to replace and Boxsters have the same starter so if you search on eBay you can get a second hand genuine one for around \u00a350.
I helped a friend buy a certified 2018 (I think? Maybe 2017) Macan GTS. The good? It really is a fun little coupe, with the six cylinder versions it's quick enough and the handling is great.
I had to replace one of the PDLS+ headlights and it was $3,600. So that's an expensive fix but at least they didn't tear up the rest of the car.
I did my AOS and water pump/thermostat, coolant change, trans fluid change, spark plugs and coils ( one failed while driving, engine ran horrible , but I was real close to home).
I recently changed all the spark plugs and coils.
Just bee sure to use Genuine Porsche only for the expansion tank and AOS. Water pump can be Genuine or OEM.
Just had mine done recently on a 2014 CS MT, drive belt was the only 60k specific item, and honestly the old belt they pulled out looked almost new

The general consensus was water pump, a moderate to complex job. I have a great Indy that got at it straight away whilst they’re doing my ceramic front pads, and confirmed water pump failure! Also replacing a thermostat and a sensor in the head that seems to be melted! There has been zero damage caused as I stopped immediately as the message appeared! 1 of the 3 parts is on back order from Germany allowing 5 working days postage, the car will be put back together early part of the week after next due to delay! On an internet deep dive it’s clear that the water pump failure is an Achilles on the turbo engine, scores of people have suffered the same fate! I’m at 40k miles second owner with fastidious and comprehensive service history, oil and filter every 5k miles etc! The bill will top out at £2.5k which is a fraction of what Porsche U.K. charge for this job which is a fair amount of labour for a moderate to complex job! I Would advise anyone to change the water pump if they’re ever anywhere near it doing other maintenance if this goes and you’re miles from home then it’s a recovery job and like I say they seem to be a little decrepit for my liking and a problem to many!
This exact situation happened to me. I assumed it was due to the outside temperature. Quite disappointing for a luxury brand.
