Hi all can someone help me i have purchased a porsche Charge-o-mat trickle charger and it connects via the cigarette lighter socket and keeps the battery at optimum charge levels

My question is can i use the power socket/cigarette socket in the boot/trunck or does it have to be the cigerette lighter socket in the front ???

I have been chasing a similar problem on my 2006 Turbo s 93,000 mls and i have just had to have my timing chain replaced as it had stretched its a tough pill to swallow but now feels like a new car !

Hi i have the 2006 Turbo S and the only thing that lets the car down in my opinion was the stereo looks dated no touch screen i wanted bluetooth connectivity for my phone and also my wifes and i also wanted usb and memeory card slots i have the Bose option and wanted to keep it that way so i opted after doing a lot of research for the Dynvin N6 it looks OEM and is the best upgrade i have done to my car it has everything you could want and more besides the sat nav is a vast impreovement also sounds much better than the old unit

Here is my Uk based Turbo S

Secondary Decat removed

Sprint Booster

Techart Lowering Module (not yet fitted)

De Chromed

Update regards my issues it seems it was not transmission problems it went in and was throwing up a fault showing "turbo boost limit exceeded" & "bank 1 cam shaft position"

So the bank 1 cam sensor and N75 boost solenoid were  replaced which did not clear the fault so both air boxes removed and boost pipes to get access to the turbo charges.

Tested turbo wast gates both working correctly

Next carried out leak test on pipe from solenoid to actuators and were found not to be holding vacuum

the faulty sections of pipe replaced re fitted air box and boost pipes

cleared all codes and re tested all faults are now gone and i have my beast back and it feels like a new car in another couple of months i will get the transmission fluids changed for preventative measures and hopefully i wont have any issues further down the line

thank you everyone for your help and comments regarding these issues :notworthy:

Hi would these fit my 2006 cayenne turbo s

4 x 20" alloys

9.5 j front x 2         OFFSET ET48

11.0 j rears x 2     OFFSET ET 55

PCD  5/130

CENTRE BORE 71.6

If i was on your place i wouldnt continue to guess what it could be. Invest 300 GBP and change the Fluid. Anyway your car has some Miles and as mentioned here many times these Fluids are not made for a lifetime. Situation with my old Cayenne S was Similar to yours before i decided to flush the tranny. If you talk to people from ZF they will tell you, Heavy SUV's should have fresh Fluid after 80.000 km. This is what i learned.

Thanks again i am not trying to guess whats wrong as i did not know there was anything wrong with it in the first instance having olny had the car a few months and its not a daily drive just pleasure for weekends etc  i just thought that  was how they were and thats it ? but i recently had a major service and when it came back it felt amazing but that only lasted a week or so and now it seems to be back as it was before so i am going to get my local porsche specialist to check it out can i  just ask who or what are ZF ?

Once again thank you

Thank you for taking time out to give some some constructive advice as you have mentioned there are different reasons for these issues and i did not want to have my throttle boddies done if it could be resolved with something else as my issues are slightly different as i do not seem to have the violent downshifts mine seem to be more upshifts where i could be cornering in second gear and accelerate out of the corner and there is no power at all and then all of a sudden it violently accelerates and if you are not carefull you could shunt the car in front or lose control of the car ?

This topic has been beaten to death. Search the forums and make a decision to the repair. Replace the fluid first and if that doesn't fix the problem you'll need a gearbox valve body so long as you didn't find loads of swarf in the pan magnets during the fluid change.

Thank you for taking the time out to reply everyone seems so friendly :oops:

Sorry i did not realise this contravened any rules still its nice to get a reply :huh:

HI everyone i have a 2006 Cayenne Turbo S  with 91000 miles on the clock although i do not have violent downshifts i do have slow upshifts but when the power does kick in it can be violent and sometimes catch you out if the roadconditions especially in winter are poor but its the slow upshifts and throttle delay i fing the most frustrating would this be the throttle bodies i have been reading about or just something i have to live with ?

also as far as i am aware the tranny fluid has not been changed i am based in the uk so please be patient with me as i just want to get this sorted

thank you

Thank you for the replies no  unfortunatley  no uk specific cayenne forums due to the limited numbers that this car was produced in the problem i have is the sound system is all bose with a analogue tv tuner i dont want to lose the bose sound i just wanted to swap the analogue tuner for a digital one that gadget on the connects site looks interesting i will delve further

thanks guys

Unbelievable nearly a 100 post reads and not a reply ? :blush: :blush:

Hi everyone i have 2006 Turbo S and i want to upgrade the now obsolete Anolgue Tuner to a digital Tuner what do i need and is there anyone that has done this ?

is it as simple as just swapping to tuner ?

also i have found this ECU UNIT FOR A TV KOMBI TUNER  removed from a cayenne would it be compatable

PART NUMBER ON UNIT: 7L5919148A

DONOR VEHICLE  VIN: **WP0ZZZ99ZES160170**

Fabspeed does also make a Downpipe which replaces the front Cats too but removing the Downpipes is a royal Pain in the A%$. Milltek probably makes a set or would do a custom set of downpipes too but like I said, the install is 5 times the work of doing the Secondary Cat bypass pipes.

Thanks but i am only really interested in replacing the secondary cats its a nice mod without getting to expensive and later on i can always replace the mufflers to increase the growl etc :drive:

Can i just ask i have a 2006 turbo s and was wanting to do the secondary cat delete also and i hade earmarked the Milltek Sport Performance Secondary Cat Bypass De-Cat Exhaust Pipe but i have just noticed that it says that it Must be fitted with Milltek cat-back system and requires a Stage 2 ECU remap i was under the impression the cat delete pipes just replaced the original cats bolting to the original system and did not require a remap either is this just with the milltek pipes or typical of them all what pipes have you used and experienced thank you in advance .

I'm not familiar with the Milltek bypass pipes. The most commonly used bypass pipes on this side of the big pond, Fabspeed's and Leistung's, are both designed to replace only the secondary catalytic converters and bolt right up to the remaining factory exhaust system. I have a set on my CTTS and believe it's the single best mod I've done. The primary catalysts are integral with the downpipes, and have the pre and post 02 sensor ports on them. Most guys leave these unmolested. A secondary bypass install does not require ECU remap, but obviously a remap will further enhance the performance of the vehicle. Personally, I would advise against doing an aftermarket exhaust unless you're just looking for more noise; they don't really offer much incremental performance.

Thank you for your informative reply i know have another couple of options maybe :clapping:

Looks like the Milltek pipes are a slip fit in the rear to their rear exhaust, similiar to OEM but it may be a different diameter. I have a set of Milltek Catless downpipes for my Audi RS6 and they are about 1/4"~6mm larger than OEM and also meant for their own rear slightly larger pipes. Since Milltek are somewhat a local (UK) company you may want to call them. They have excellent quality, as good as any and better than most. Otherwise you could see if their is a Fabspeed distributor around but in the UK I doubt they could compete with Milltek.

Thank you for your reply i will give them a ring :cheers:
