Lost all coolant in seconds
in 9PA, 9PA1 (Cayenne, Cayenne S, Cayenne Turbo, Cayenne Turbo S)

Hi there
I think I have exactly the same problem you had. I removed all the plastic pipes plus the two connectors coming from top coolant pipe #3 and found no damage or cracks. Unless there is some hairline cracks but I lost coolant much quicker than that. Only thing I did find broken was the small white (used to be white) T-connector pipe in your picture - and it was really brittle when I tried to remove it it just snapped off on the one side.
Other problem I have is that the rubber pipes (connecting onto the steel pipes) is not in good shape and the one has a small tear at the white connector so I have to replace them as well. My questions is - if you could help maybe - 1. Was this the place where your leak came from or was it somewhere else? 2. Did you replace the two rubber pipes on both sides of the little white T and if so, how did you get them off - or do you have any advice on how to do this? I am attaching a picture of the pipes and connector just to make sure. My vehicle is a 2006 Turbo S.
I appreciate any help or advice you can give, thanx!!!
