  1. try this one:

    http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php/topic/27124-oil-leak-soot/

    if not, there are a couple other reasons why oil leaks occur in that region.

    Cayenne turbo leak oil at the bank 2 (drivers side) turbo. They vent the crankcase through that turbo under boost. Porsche has a ATI bullitin instructing use to just replace the seal/hose coming off that turbo going into the intercooler.

    Just had mine replaced while doing other work.

  2. I thought I would share my recent 05 CTT adventures.

    I found a little oil one day on my driveway and had it inspected. In order to do a full inspection, they need to pull the tranny...and engine and front suspension ~$2K.

    $50 Tranny seal did not fix it.

    Discovered that there is a unobtainable broken gear on the pump that Porsche does not sell seperately, tranny mfr does not sell and no one in the country has a used one that we can find, so we have to buy a Porsche certified rebuilt one for $5200.

    After installation ~ $7200 Ouch!

    Captured in all its gory (not a typo) here:

  3. Hi -

    I had this same setup installed yesterday.

    Can you please answer a couple of questions.

    Did you use the existing antenna or an aftermarket one? If aftermarket, where did you install it? They could not get an adapter to work for the existing and want some big bucks to rerun a line to the same spot - rear spoiler.

    Where did you find the Porsche background?

    Is that a Cayenne icon you have as your car icon on the nav?

    I need to read the manual on how to turn the screen to black at night when I do not see want to see anything.

    Cheers,

    Daniel

  4. Congrats your CTT. I love ours. We have the same issue now and are going to an aftermarket replacement headunit after reading this:

    http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/cayenne/192424-porsche-radio-nav-pcm-2-1-faulty-screen-replacement-tutorial-video-how.html

    Hello all, Im a new 06 CTT owner who is already having a problem. The PCM screen has decided to display black and white snow. I have read a few threads where this is a common problem, but havent read much about a way to fix this problem. Any info on what needs to be done to rectify this problem. All was well this morning, but through out the day the screen started acting up and became almost ghostly with its display. A few light finger touches fixed the problem. But now hard finger touches doesnt help. I can hear the radio and change stations, but the screen is non functional.

  5. Thanks for the offer of phone support. I will keep it in mind.

    No, sorry. I am currently in Arizona. At least for the next 92 days. Then we head to Pensacola Florida. Where in Oregon are you from? If something happened to this Cayenne, I would do it all over again in my next. I can't believe it took me a whole year, I bought it exactly a year ago. If I did have to do it again I could easily do it in half a day or less, if working in right conditions. It litteraly took me 2 mins to remove the wing and maybe 30 mins to fish through hinge and work my way to front. I did the pre-wiring of the MOSTHUR and the Kenwood in my office. The only wires from the car I had to tap into was the HI and LOW CAN, the power and ground. The Fiber optic just plugs in from MOST-HUR.

    I didn't mention that the main reason I could only work on this for no more than an hour or so at a time was because of the extreme heat. While it was 110 outside, it would be much more in my garage and especially in the car. The only other accessory that I plan on installing is a reverse camera.

    Again I wish I could help with your install, but I can offer you any electronic support.

  6. I had to have one door switch replaced this month. The issues as that it would "misfire" and lock and unlock randomly. Different from yours, but could require the same fix.

    2004 Cayenne S, 48,000 miles, no fault codes indicated(Durametric software) , all service current, no prior problems. I locked the Cayenne with the remote, 30 minutes later the remote will not unlock the drivers door, all other doors unlock. The drivers door will not unlock with the remote, it will not unlock with the key and it will not open from the outside or inside. I spoke with Porsche Dealership (top tech) they were not aware of this problem, he said he had only heard of this if a body shop had been working on the door. No one has worked on my door. Anyone had a similar experience or suggested fix?

  8. Hi - can you please provide some detail as to how you requested Porsche to fix this? Mine looks to be going today - 180miles from home. Thank you.

    Porsche kicked in a $1000 certificate and i got the dealer to drop his parts and labor prices based on your posts! What was going to cost me $2500 out of pocket, will now run me $250 ! Thanks guys!

  9. My nav/radio screen in our 05 CTT goes between full black background (normal) to whiteish, low res background every now and then. If I press on the screen it, goes back to full black for awhile. It is acting like there is a loose connection behind the screen.

    Suggestions on how to resolve this or instructions on how to pull my screen to check behind it?

    Thanks in advance.

  10. cOOk!e you ROCK!! First posts here and you solved an issue we have had forever. Reading the PDFs I know I can walk right out there and do the install. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!

    I have no diagram, but you have to dismantle the mirror front and rear shells, it takes some time and the parts are very brittle to work with.
