Hi Lewis no that isnt metal flakes. Old dry oil i would say. you mentioned the breather valve. I will have a look. How possible to find out if this thing is working or not?
-
Shouldnt this area look a little bit more oily? if the reason is to seperate oil and air here i was expecting more oil to see. Is the valve which is sitting in front of the Oil/Air seperator a part which can fail too? Any possibility to test this?! Than you
-
I checked this air/ oil seperator. Cant find anything wrong on this membrane.
-
Thankx for your advice. Will try it. I used every day some WD40. Maybe its now soaked and will move more easy. I try on weekend when i have time. Thank you
-
Thanks a million for your support. The oil/ air seperator i wanted to check already but i found it very difficult to open the cap. I was affraid to break something. Will try it again. One last question about the turbo seal which you mention. Is this a part sitting inside the turbo housing?
-
Thank you for the technical lesson the passenger side is bone dry. No oil at all . No tubes or hoses are covered with oil and inside the MAF housing everything ok.
-
I hope thats not a problem with the turbo itself. Maybe i should add that some month ago the the turbo to intercooler hose was drained and got a new seal. the car has still full boost on the gauge.
-
Hi Mark like shown on the engine picture, after the hose which is coming out of the air filter housing, the MAF is located. Next is a tube which is connected with the turbo. This hose has some kind of junction where the DV is connected to.
-
I know Lewis . You explain me how to do it. Is your guess the DV is causing this oil mass? i am not a mechanic and so my questions might sound stupid but i try to understand the basic things on this engine. Why a bad oil separtor which is sitting on top of the engine can be also involved in the problem i have here? Thank you for making things claer with your markings a the engine picture.
-
I didnt inspect from under the car until now . Is it possible that a broken DV is causing this oil mass?
-
What i can add to the story: i didnt change the MAF. Just cleaned it. The difference in driving and shifting is like day and night.
-
This car keeps me busy. I wanted to change air filter and MAF's because the car is not running and shifting well. The procedure is easy for somebody who is handy. Biggest problem to seperate the pipe where the MAF is sitting from the pipe which is going to the turbo. if the air filter is out there is enough place to work. right side was a bad surprise for me. I had the valve cover gasket replaced some weeks ago and there is still so oil spray. I note them already . But when i had the air filter out and look down i found everything full of oil. This i guess is coming from somewhere down. i seperated the MAF from the pipe and what i saw was not nice. hose completely dirty with oil MAF swimming in oil i understand the air stream is from up to down. Air filter to MAF to turbo. what causing so much oil in this MAF / pipe. ?
-
The pin was out guys. Maybe a bigger hammer will help. I will try again next weekend
-
Lewis thank you for caring. No way. I used lots of fluids to make it move. Used a small pin and hammer. Nothing at all. Looks like i need the shop
-
Hello everybody. wanted to change my brake pads this weekend. Front i did and it was easy. Rear i thought would be easier. No way. the pin which has to come out didnt move even a millimeter. Is there a trick? Did i miss something or this is corrosion? thank you
-
my porsche shop was caring that time about the car. I didnt have a code reader. So i cant tell you which codes the car was showing. About what i read the MAF sensors and O2 sensors are very sensitive in case of temp. So its possible that this is your prob. I understand u dont want to throw hundreds for parts if you are not shure . Start maybe with cleaning the MAF's. Or dont buy the entire MAF. Just change the sensors inside the housing. They trade at arround 50 USD here in Europe
-
Not necessary its the same but i had similar problems with s cayenne S and it was MAF and O2 sensors related.
-
Thank you very much. Will try to go to this place
-
I need to disconnect all my pano roof panels because the air deflector / panel 1 doesnt move. Can somebody please point me to the place where i can find the the item no. 5 shown on the diagramm. Thank you
-
" When people ask where is the Bluetooth I simply reply my CTT is about the driving experience, not about talking on my phone or how many cup holders I have." this is cool!!!!! :-)
-
Simple question maybe. The MAF housing from Cayenne S is different from Turbo. Are the sensors inside also different or the same? thank you
