I know this thread is old, but I recently bought a Cayenne Turbo and am experiencing this issue with the driver side rear door. I can manually move the manual override but as soon as I unlock the doors it fails to lock again. Is there something wrong with the locking mechanism or does it need lubricated? If its mechanical, what is the part I would look for to replace? Thanks -
Has anyone experienced the settings reset themselves? I've set the comfort settings numerous times with both keys and the plastic key but the settings don't stick. I've read that there's an Auto Memory function but I cannot find it in the settings. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

I posted this question in Rennlist as well and one user said it is normal for water to trap in the area near the oil cooler? Has anyone else heard of this theory? If this is a common thing then I'm more inclined to believe the cooler is not leaking but if not then I'd rather just change it... Feedback??? tApPeD fROM mY nExUs 6

Basic Info 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe C2 Manual 6 speed US So my friend and I started to the process of changing the IMS to the Solution and noticed while we were removing the second from the top left bolt of the transmission (facing the rear of the car) that there was a lot of corrosion. The bolt was very difficult to get out and actually took some of the threads with it. Once we removed the tranny we saw inside the housing of the tranny and the crank crystallized particles. It was also around the bolt that was tough to get out. After a closer look it appeared that the oil cooler had leaked antifreeze at some point which over time, seeped around the tranny/crank housing (did not enter the tranny though). It (the flakes) also was near where the cooler mount to the crank. This led us to belive that possibly the oil cooler is bad or going bad or possibly the oil cooler o-rings. Any ideas or comments? This is where I plan on getting the replacement parts. I can post some pics even if it would help.

Awesome answers. Thank you. I am excited yet nervous about the purchase and just want to make an educated decision. tApPeD fROM mY nExUs 6

Thank you fellas for the response. Any idea what the cost from a certified installer ranges from for the retro to the complete fix? Also what does the dealership use to fix the issues? They quoted me a cost of around $3500. Are they just replacing it with the same defective parts? tApPeD fROM mY nExUs 6

Don't mean to resurrect a somewhat old thread but I too have been researching and in the market for a 911. At this point any 911 ranging from 1999 to probably around 2005. I've read that the newer models are very hard to service the IMS and basically a complete motor rebuild. I guess my question is this... If I buy a car that I'm uncertain to the IMS RMS upgrade or change, is there a way to tell if the car is in trouble from a buyer's perspective? Also when the dealership says they'll fix those issues what are they replacing the old parts with? Are they better or equivalent to the third party fixes or retrofits? Also can someone point me towards the best parts to accomplish the complete fix and retrofit? I live in the Pittsburgh area and of anyone else is around here and can point out a great service shop that would be helpful.... Thanks 1st POST :) tApPeD fROM mY nExUs 6
