  1. Member @ lewisweller would ask: do you feel any smell of gas when you open the reservoir ? If not ok. If yes, head gasket.

    You wrote thermostat is new? You installed it?  How the coolant was refilled? I bought a special vacuum refill tool because Cayenne V8 engines are well known for air pockets. Not just enough to put water inside until max. Reading.

    When you sit in your car and watching the temp gauge climbing up, what happens with the temp if you rev the engine a little bit for one minute. Can you see the temp dropping?

     

  2. It doesnt fit to this topic but i dont want to open new discussion.

     

    i have serious problems with my sway bar bushings. They are making noises like crazy. Feel even shy to drive. Squeaking like crazy. I treat some with a wrong spray and since than they are noisy. I have new bushings. Just wondering if i can change them without removing all the sway bar. 

    Any advice is very welcome.

  3. First of all thank you very much Mike for your detailed post.  

    There are 2 lines in direction to the passenger turbo. One to the wastegate, one to the turbo housing . I am talking about line 10 which is measuring the ambient air. This one i squeezed, hope to reduce the air flow to n75 and see some changes.  Weekend i will check this entire line down where its connected. Hope to find a leak

  4. Checking the lines going away from n75 valve again. I can bet the pressure lines to wastegates are very tied. The line which is going to the cold side of the charger how Mark call it, i am not shure. I squeezed the line with the zip tie. Almost closed. Wanted to see what happens if the air stream to the valve / from the valve is different.   Went for a test drive just to see if something changed.  It did interestingly.  I hope i am not paranoid but the way how the car is acting is different during acceleration. I will change this pressure line these days and report back what happens.

  5. I am pretty sure the noise/ pressure relief is coming from the passenger side. Driving through a tunnel with open windows make me believe it's something on the right side.
    Seal on lower tube is changed

    Pressure hose to wastegate changed

    Is it possible to get access to the wastegate linkage like on the picture (pics from member @danyol)

     

    There is another pressure hose which is going from n75 to charger housing.

    Measuring what?  Blowing through this pipe makes air escaping at the end of the air tube which ends in the air filter housing.
