  1. Since my old Cayenne is living outside in all weather conditions now for 2 years without any driving, a lot of things dont work like they have to. I replaced battery. Everything works. Problems left is the ususal wet floor problem which i need to solve. But there is a problem which keeps me away from driving. The hood doesnt close proper. I used a lot of wd 40. not really a progress. Sometimes its closing but when i am driving some meters its popping off. My guess is corrosion of the cable. Is it a DIY job? Can i get access to the cable from engine compartment or is it possible to see behind the wheel well liner? Any help is welcome
  2. I have it with the unit in my old cs. Never went away. Only solution is a new screen for arround 120 USD
  3. Thank you Duncan. Just was wondering if possible to save some time an dont remove the belt in total. But i understand but to take it out completely
  4. Thank you. Maybe my question sound stupid now. I have to take out the belt completely or its enough just to release the tensioner?
  5. Ok. The belt cant be the reason. It was changed some weeks before with the pulleys.
  6. Good morning to Belgium. I did not try. Is it possible to do it for a short time?
  7. Hi ! I Try to discover a noise which i have now for one year. Nobody can tell me exactly where its coming from. It occured last year when i changed my alternator. I was pointing to this part but the company which delivered that part is telling me it cant be. "If the alternator is working so the noise is something else" My porsche shop changed some pulleys. Dont know excatly if all. Water pump is new. Alternator new. Maybe somebody has a idea when watching the video clip. Thank you so much https://vid.me/Z2T6
  8. Of course you cant compare icarsoft with durametric. As written here already from JFP the Durametric pro version can perform lot more. I bought it because it was just 80 euro and i couldnt pass this offer. For serious problems - and i have a lot- i anyway go to the shop. I am not a good DiY person when it comes to difficult jobs on this car.
  9. I have the same tool and i can tell you the device is reacting different on my 03 CS and the 05 turbo.
  10. Happy new year to belgium! Thank you for explaining this.
  11. Interesting to know how its possible to find out if the timing chains are streched.
  12. For me sounds like a sensor somewhere is causing this. The car has so many sensors for safety and stability. When you make turns maybe one of the sensors is sending out a PSM signal which is almost shutting down power
  13. Problem is solved. Was the coolant vent line. This small hose with the t on the pictures. And onother rubber hose somewhere else. Now she is dry again. Need do make a test drive if everything works
  14. Just talked to the mechanic. Its the t pipe near the starter which is broken. The tubes close to the firewall are leacking too. Thats what made me a little bit angry. When car was in last time for replacing the starter they should check all this briggle tubes. My wish was always a good mechanic will see what to do and replace when one time there. But looks like this wish will be forever
  15. Found always some drops missing but could not locate the problem. Last week The car lost a lot of coolant while driving. Took it to my mechanic. Very curious what happend.
  16. As i remember the alternator of a cayenne s is not water cooled. I think this feature comes only with the turbo.
  17. Hello Ryan. I was surching arround in different places and i am concerned it could be the axle. Maybe a professional here at renntech can confirm it or giving advice how to test a bad axle. Thankx
  18. I had a klunking noise coming from right front when driving on bumpy roads. I thought it should be the lower control arm. I had i replaced some time ago. Nothing changed. Still the same. In which way i could find out what part is causing this? Any possibility to get the parts tested on the front suspension? Thank you for your input. Thomas
  19. I had 100% the same and couldnt find out. Sorry. My guess is we maybe bought the wrong antenna.
  20. I solved it in a different way. Bought a new item from bay. Thank you all for your comments
  21. Richard i operate already hours. Driving arround. Nothing. It isnt showing any satellite. Thats why i thought maybe the antenna is the wrong one.
