Boxster cranking problem

Hi, wondering if any ideas to my problem, my Boxster cranks and starts fine when cold. When warm it hesitates cranking like a weak battery, sometimes does not even crank unless it turn the ignition key many times eventually cranking then starts.

Personally I would suspect a dying starter.
Either that or a bad electrical connection somewhere along the way.

But I'm sure there are people here that know better.

Best of luck to you man.

Known issue. Starter wire gets heat soaked. Only thing to do is to replace it. Someone on here is making new ones, I'll ping him for you.
