porsche

This took a long time to find out, but after several times at the Porsche workshop without them being able to find the error, I handed it to an independent workshop. They found the problem after one day. It was a cable to the aircondition unit that was broken and gave the check engine light. This is repaired and the check engine light has not returned.

Hi, Can anybody help me decide if these are OEM or fakes? The quality looks good. Thanks

Here are the error codes from when it was all 6 cylinders: P030000 - Misfire detected P030100 - Cylider 1 misfire detected P030400 - Cylinder 4 misfire detected P030300 - Cylinder 3 misfire detected P030600 - Cylinder 6 misfire detected P030200 - Cylinder 2 misfire detected P030500 - Cylinder 5 misfire detected Those were the first time they read cylinder misfire. The last 3 times Porsche have read the error codes it was only cylinder 2 and 6.

I have a 2015 Porsche Cayenne S E-hybrid with a check engine light, where the main error codes has been misfire cylinder 2 and 6 that did not resolve after changing coils and spark plugs. The car i running fine. Everything is working as normal, there is only the yellow "check engine" light. I should mention that the first time the car was at the Porsche workshop because of the check engine light, the error code was: Electric motor, rotor position sensor - short circuit to B+. Porsche cleared that, but on the way back from the workshop the check engine light came back on. This time the error code was: P33CB00 - High-voltage power electronics control unit - function restriction. Once again they cleared the codes but the check engine light came back on shortly after. This time they read out "misfire detected on all 6 cylinders". They once again cleared it, but the check engine came back on. This time the error codes was "misfire cylinder 2 and 6". They changed the coils but it came back and the error codes was "misfire cylinder 2 and 6". Then they changed the sparkplugs. After the sparkplugs was changed I was able to drive the car for 1,5 hour before the check engine came back on. This time Porsche also read the error codes "misfire cylinder 2 and 6" Now they are not sure what is causing it. The car feels and drives exactly like normal. The only problem is the "check engine" light. It has about 80 000 miles on it and is made for the US-marked. I would really appreciate if anybody has any good ideas what could be wrong or what to do next.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, they had done that, and the conclusion is still that the electric motor needs to be replaced. And I never had the "Red hybrid warning message" only the "yellow check engine warning". Has anybody had any experience with this problem? Is it possible to replace the sensor only? And where can one be bought? Is there a place where I can buy a used electric engine?

I have a 2015 Cayenne S E-hybrid with 70.000 miles. The check engine warning light came on the other day.. Everything was still working fine. I took the car to the Porsche dealer and the found that the problem is with the electric engine. The error code is P0A4200, which is malfunction of the electric motor rotor position sensor. The tried reprogramming the engine with new software, but that did not help. Now they say the whole electric engine needs to be replaced even though it is just the sensor not working. The cost of this will be around USD 10.000 (here in Norway). Apart from the check engine light everything is working as normal. The hybrid part is working fine. Any advice?

Can anybody tell me what specifications the battery for a Porsche 996 Carrera 4 Cab Tip requires?

Thank you, but I have already tried to remove and resetting the fuse without any luck. I don`t know if the car is still under warranty. The car was first time registered in september 04. I`m not shure how long the warranty holds in the US. The car is now in Norway, but originally bought in USA.

I have an early 05 997 S, and wanted to upgrade the PCM firmware to be able to play Mp3. I downloaded this update and tried to install it in my car. There were three steps in the update, the PCM upgrade went fine, but when I got to the amplifier update it crashed. My bose amplifier now doesn`t work at all. I went to my Porsche dealer to get it fixed. They tried to upgrade the system as well, but had no luck with the amplifier. The say I have to order a new one (which is rather expensive) because they can not contact the amplifier. They have no way of reseting it, it need to be replaced. Does anybody know if there is another possible solution? The amplifier hardware is fine (worked perfectly before I tried to upgrade PCM), and it seems strange to me that there isn`t a way to install the original firmware. Thanks in advance for any help.
