It's common for the front radiators on the boxster to get filled up with crap. And dead animals.

Unfortunately, to do it right, you need to remove the front bumper cover - because the "radiators" you can see from the outside are actually for the aircon. (I think...)

I've had my car about 4 months, but I haven't gotten around to doing it yet, but my temp stays pretty close to 180.
