Sounds like the plastic T-pipe underneath the motor. No worries though, Porsche usually covers this part. Otherwise it will be updated as they do the work at a wopping.......wait for it.......2000 buh :o . I just recently had the same faliure.

Just had this happen to me today on my 04' :angry: . I'm bummed. Hope the extended warranty covers this. I'll keep checking up and update after a visit to the shop.

The first time replacing the battery was a torture session. After having the right tool, aka "#10 triple square socket", it was a breeze. Carquest has most parts for the Cayenne, including the updated Bosch coils, that gave some of us fits. Their direct replacement battery (breather tube port style)part # is 93-72.

Is it viable to add a set of turbochargers to a standard CS? Has anyone done it?

Thanks for any help.

"...there is a TSB on this."

Contributing Members here can view all Porsche TSBs.

Thanks Loren, I found some very insightful information here. Call is in to the (2nd) dealer to plead my case. Otherwise I will buy a set of new coil packs and do them myself.

Thanks again, great forum here!

IMHO that is way too much.

Is your car under warranty - if so those cracked ignition coils should be replaced free.

If it is not under warranty, all the coil packs should be replaced - there is a TSB on this.

Warranty just ran out. Surprise. I had called the dealer where the car had always been service and they gave me the quote. These parts are all over the internet for 18 dollars each.

I am mechanically inclined and have worked on many vehicles, including installing a supercharger on my new Toyota truck.

Am I thinking it's more than just removing the covers and changing a pnp part?

Has anyone documented the proceedure? Is there any service manuals floatin' around?

Without the code(s) everything is just a wild guess.

Ok, got em'.

P0355 Ignition coil primary

P0300 Random multiple misfire

P0305 Cylinder 5 misfire

I guess this kinda answers my first question. Is this a very difficult job, I wonder. The dealer wants 565 to do the job. Is this a good price?

Thanks in advance for any help,

Chris

Okay, I switched the maf's, and now I've gotten the code P0305 twice (cylinder 5 misfire?), and still getting the "shake"/vibration. Any ideas as to what this could be indicative of? Could that still indicate maf issue, or something else? I sure do appreciate all the help and input!!!

Hi everyone, newbie to the forum. 1st Porsche also, a 04' cs.

I just purchased this vehicle on an off lease. I had one of the dealers pull all the records for me and it looks like all the recall stuff had been done.

I am experiencing the same issue with a rough idle and only when it's hot. After a night of cool down, it runs fine.

I was wondering if your porblem was ever resolved and with what. I get a CEL and then it goes away. I know that I need to pull the code and should have the DuraMetric tool some time next week. Just lookin' for some insight.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
