  1. There is no need to remove the front bumper on NON Turbo Cayenne, remove the screws on the front side of the inner wheel well and pull backwards. The horns are located in the rooms in front of the inner wheel well left and right side of the car.
  2. Connector actuator bank 1 ( driver side ) is located on the engine bloc at cyl. # 3 in the gearbox area. Connector actuator bank 2 ( pass. side ) is located on the engine bloc at cyl. # 4 rear side of the car - exhaust area.
  3. Sorry, the answer is specific for 987/997 cars, you are on the wrong forum.
  4. You mean the Isofix bar on the seat? The inclination of the back rest is limited, by a small bolt, if the bar is installed. Perhaps the installer did something wrong.
  5. The Porsche CTEK is only available with a cigarette lighter connector, the devise is the same.
  6. There is no need to play with the trunk wiring to install a cruise control, must be a accidence. Go back to the dealer.
  7. A repeating of the "vehicle handover" with the PIWIS can help you out, visit a good dealer to do the job.
  8. The handbrake cables can hit the tyre and is only visible with the car on the floor.
  9. I would check both power steer lines ( from the pump to the steering rack ) first for damage ( crushed ), it's not the first time someone destroyed the lines while changing out the engine.
  10. 18 inch wheel = 8.0 J x 18 ET 57 tyres 255/55 R 18 19 inch wheel = 9.0 J x 19 ET 60 tyres 275/45 R 19 You can change the wheels without problem.
  11. Let check the car on fault codes, it's the cheapest way to go after all.
  12. Do your self a favour and buy a new tube.
  13. Bank 2 is on the passengers side for LHD cars ( right side ) 996/997, cylinders 4-5-6.
  14. It is possible to install a solid pulley on cars with manual transmission without differences or issues, take note that solid pulleys needs metal rollers instead of plastic rollers. Solid pulleys gives too much wear on plastic rollers, you have to change them out for metal ones.
  15. The part # is 996 613 113 01 if the car is equipped with the BROWN colored body brake switch, price = € 8.00
  16. I would check the battery first, than the starter and the grounds. If the solenoid will click, you can exclude the ignition and clutch switch already.
  17. Correct, use the situation to clean the radiators environment too.
  18. Good question, the system is not separated left/right on a 996 like the Cayenne have, there is only a flap in one piece on the heater.
  19. Remove the head lights - pull ( slide ) out with a hook the long clips, which are the locks on the connection, top bumper shell to body work, in the direction of the empty head light room - remove the trim ( rubber lip ) which covers the trunk lock - remove the screws - remove the front half of the inner wheel well - remove the screw bumper shell to body work ( let the side lights in place ) - remove all the screws on the bottom of the bumper shell - pull the bumper shell a little forward - disconnect the head lights washer tube ( if installed ) on the left side - disconnect the electric connector on the right side - pull off bumper shell. Enjoy.
  20. Probably the electro servomotor(s) which activate the flaps in the aircon system, a good part of Cayenne's have this issue. If it is too annoying, change them out. The flaps are always working AC on or off, you have to shut the climate control complete off to eleminate the noise.
  21. Just gentle pull of, starting on the left or right bottom corner.
  22. There are two different covers available, depending which type of intermediate shaft is used. They are not interchangeable, in fact the update concerns the width of the O-ring, older engines have a small O-ring and the revised covers have a much larger O ring.
  23. Do a search, alternator removal is discussed here many times ( 996 and 986 forum ). In most cases, the alternator can be repaired.
  24. Strange ADias, looks more something for 997/987 with electronic lock.
  25. You need the fault codes to have an idea what precisely is wrong whit the system, any way the key can reprogrammed ( or try to do ) if you still have the digit code label.
