I've had that sound too every now and then.

Its the starter bushing showing signs of wear or lack of lubrication.

Some lube should quiet it down and reduce wear rate. Probably get another year out of it or more if its not too badly worn.

Hi I have a quite loud squeal when starting the engine. It happens every third start or more.

I have read it every where-and believe its a common Boxster 'feature'

I would nicely suggest to fix it now before it simply stops working. Ask me how I know.
