Thank you again so much :) That would be in the engine compartment, right ? The FS11 ?
-
Thank you Loren, but still I am confused... I cannot locate the fuse for the A/C Compressor, if there is any... :( And I thought there were 3 compartments for fuses, one in the engine compartment, one on the drivers side and one on the passenger side. Or so I've read around here...
-
Can someone help with a correct diagram for the fuse box, of a Cayenne Turbo 2004 ? I have the one from the manual, but it is wrong (downloaded manual). Everything is mixed-up. For instance, I cannot locate the fuse for the A/C according to the diagram from the manual, etc. Thank you. :)
-
ok great... <_< good to know though :)
-
Actually I've read here about this second battery, but under my spare tire there is the Bose Sub-woofer <_< Could it be, under the Sub ?
-
Interesting... the year is 2005. Also I've noticed, even after the battery was changed with a new one, that if I stop the engine but leave the contact on, even with the radio turned off, I get that message "electrical load"... bla bla something, after just maybe 5 minutes or so !
-
Yes, I know, I've checked under the seat to verify the connections... These guys here, at my Porsche dealer, could not diagnose a missing wheel, seriously, they are that dumb... it took them 3 sessions to diagnose a faulty parking sensor. Nearest other Porsche service is in Hungary <_< But i have encountered the same cretinism at BMW dealers so...
-
anyways, I wonder who is the genius that designed the battery location under the seat... and all that rubbish you need to do just to get to it. I had to power it from my other car just to get to the bat. BRILLIANT !
-
Yes I just did, after I read your post, the connections are fine...Thank you for your opinion :) It must me something else. I will need to jump start it and make a big fuss at the dealer.
-
I really can't believe this... It is worst than the M6, really...(in terms of various problems) Battery is new, like few months, original Porsche battery. Well, I used the car yesterday, but a few moments ago, I went to the car, entry&drive would not work, ok I tried the button on the remote, nothing... Then I've unlocked with the key, put the key in the ignition and nothing. Of course the key got stuck there, but I got it out in the end... What in the name of... ???? what could have caused the battery to die over the night ? We have +33 degrees C now, I did not forget any light or whatever stuff on, there is no siren with the alarm etc. Cayenne Turbo...
-
Thank you, finally they spotted and replaced the faulty sensor, it work fine now. :)
-
I suppose they did that at the dealer, but no result came up, as they said at that time the sensors were working just fine... at least that was the feedback.
-
Well, my Park Assist is giving me some trouble for a few weeks now. Sometimes it doesn't work, error beep, red led and all... Problem is, it does that just sometimes and when I went to my Porsche dealer to investigate, they worked just fine. Now, they are working in the front, but when i go in R, they go all red again... It does not matter if the car is clean or not. What's up with this ? :unsure: Oh, and my fuel consumption has successfully reached 38 liters / 100 km :cursing: I hope it is just due to the heavy traffic. PS: the car is a Cayenne Turbo.
-
no... I was filming the recording (what the cameras cought), not the actual theft of course :)
-
No, it seems the video does not show a clear license plate, being night and snowing... Problem is, I might have found the guy (from other sources), but then again... what to do, what to do ? hmmm :unsure: Should i just brake his legs and forget about it... or just forget about it ? <_< By the way, the idiot, also crashed my windshield, when he let the wiper arm fall on the frozen windshield.
-
You mean, this could be possible in other countries also ? I thought only in Romania it's possible :o WTF, how the hell could you own a Porsche and not afford 100$ on wipers :huh: God, 150$ it costs just to fill up my Cayenne Turbo, i wonder, does he steal gas also :huh:
-
oh yeah ! but it's illegal... then again it is illegal to steal , hmmm <_< ps: sorry about the title, I meant to say "steals" :rolleyes:
-
I will post the pics as soon as possible. The part numbers... would it be on the bill I got from Porsche ?
-
I ment to post this right after i've posted the video on youtube, but i forgot. Story goes like this, my surveillance cameras, caught a dude - cayenne owner), steeling my windscreen wipers... after the theft, he went away with his own Cayenne... This amazes me in so many ways, i cannot describe :huh: Jesus Christ, i mean, they cost like 100$ at the dealer (yes, they were brand new). I've contacted the police, let's hope they catch him. When watching more hours of the recording, i've noticed that the same guy with the Cayenne, drove by, many times before the theft, probably to check out the area, and then again after the theft... I suspect he needed something else... :rolleyes: It seems they have already identified him, but the plate number is not very clear. PS: i was filming my LCD the recording, as I couldn't transfer the images on a DVD, i did not have the software at that time. Comments are in romanian, as this happened in Bucharest.. sorry about that. :) http://www.youtube.c...u/1/G-AEGye-Mkg

Will talk to tha manager next week. There is only one Porsche Dealer in this city, so I am stuck with them <_< I am nevertheless curious what they have done...
-
Ok, got the car back yesterday, they changed some hoses, (I will post a picture later). Those famous pipes under the admision, are from aluminium, so no risk of failure on that part. These were some hoses, t-shape something somewhere behind the engine... whatever, they charged 500$ (parts + labour), everything is fine now.
-
Since I got the car back from the dealer, after changing the battery, entry and drive function does not work and PDC also (red leds and buzz) I mean, when i get closer to the car, the door will not open etc... as it did before.. What could have hapened ? the dealer is BS-ing me ! They say I can't prove they worked before... I allmost choked the guy... they WORKED FINE !!! What went wrong ? maybe they turned it off from the tester by mistake ? can I activate it back somehow ?
-
Well still did not got the car back... the dealer ordered the parts, probably on friday i'll get the car back. One thing I don't get though... they ordered the T shaped pipe, some other water hose, and the Coolant Cap ??? They said something about the cap being defected, that it opens at a higher temperature than normal, and this is why the pipe/pipes failed under the higher pressure. That cap, has a sensor in or something ? or did they mean another cap ? :huh: And why the hell my entry and drive function stoppped funcioning, it worked just fine, untill they changed the battery ?!?!
-
Yes, I got the confirmation, it is the T shaped pipe... and yes mine is a Cayenne Turbo.
-
Well, after changing the ABS/PSM Module, battery, full review of the car: changed oil, filters, brake pads, coils, spark-plugs, brake discs, coolant, all the belts and water pump, yesterday it hapened the worst: I was sitting in my car, engine running, talking to someone, and at one point i got a big cloud of steam from under the hood, then "coolant low" message. Ok, stopped the car, got out. Under the car was all of my newly changed coolant :) I must be cursed or something... after all the problems I had with the BMW M6, and 5 series, i hoped, by changing the brand I will be "saved".. no such luck :huh: Anyways, I called Porsche dealer, they came and towed the car... I believe it's the famous pipe or coolant pipes I read about here. :rolleyes:
