    I drove the Porsche now but I still get the message oil level monitoring failure and PSM failure

     

    I had a similar problem. Reason was a faulty lock mechanism on the hood. When oil warning light appears and you fill up oil and open and close the hood for this reason light should go out.

    try to take out this fuse for a moment and put it back. Start the car and see what happens with your warnings

    Alignment of the shaft is critical.

    There is a specific alignment tool that is used to install the bearing carrier assembly.

     

    Its a porsche service. But i would not be surprised they just hammered it in. 

    I am so p.....

    parts, parts, parts, and many things not done in the right way. 

    This cardan shaft was just changed in case of. Thats now the result. You think you have a new part and drive save. Opposite happens.

    Another one with bent tabs this is turning into common occurrence. 

    Let us know what the outcome is, anymore fault codes and what's the running condition now?

    Thomas your reading this for sure! 

     

     

    Yes i am reading this.

     

    Many times already it has been discussed in the forum about the importance to take care about these cam shaft tabs when working on the valve cover.

     

    would like to ask what this tabs are doing? Would a problem causing constant    rough running? Misfires? In all rpm range? In some specific rpm range?

    if the flap would be broken, how to replace / repair?

  4. PSM is a tricky thing. On my first cayenne the shop changed so many parts and nothing helped. Just my experience, many times its related with electric faults. Low battery, some wires which get spoiled on the drivers floor or passenger floor because of water.

    So many different reason. Just today i had a look into the engine bay because check engine light and PSM warning came on. Found a small crack in a vacuum hose which i replaced temporary with a silicon tube.
