No, did not change the T pipes as I found out about this a litter later. However, completed the ATF leak problem from the bell housing. This was a big job as just about everything came off but when we opened the torque convertor we saw the ATF leaking and replaced the seal with the new updated seal. All well now.

Yep. It's your torque converter seal. When you remove and replace the coolant pipes, coolant will inevitably get into the bell housing. Curious design that any fluids in the valley between the heads and under the intake manifold will drain straight into the bell housing and drain out the two holes as shown in the pictures. After the torque converter was contaminated with the coolant fluid, it failed. This only happens with a worn/older seals. I had a small coolant leak and it drain into the bell housing. Since I had my seal replaced with a new one, I did not have any problems(knock on wood). The job can be done by any independent mechanic. They will need a lift. The drive shaft, center diff, front drive shaft and the transmission itself have to come off. Since the tranny has to come off, the transmission oil lines are disconnected. You might as well change the transmission oil and filter. My mechanic did the replacement for $1300 US. Thanks for your quick advise; I suspected the same problem as well. I have ordered the radial shaft seal for the torque convertor and the oil sump gasket, filter & ATF oil for the transmission. Hopefully this will solve my problem within the next one week. Do you know of any other common CT problems that I ought to keep an eye on?

Hi - i seem to have the exact problem on my 06 Cayenne Turbo; what is the problem as i am baffled and we do not have a Porsche dealership in Kenya. The red fluid comes from the bell housing and even as i wipe it off it reappears and drips down. I had the Coolant Aluminum Kit done even though mine was not leaking and also had the coolant cap cover replaced. Any suggestions?

Hi, i have a 06 CT and have red liquid coming from the bell house. The coolant kit upgrade was done 2 weeks ago; i also had the coolant cap replaced. Any suggestions; thanks.
