Are you sure the blower motor is out and there is not just a piece of weatherstripping stuck in the fan? The weatherstripping problem is pretty common.

996.624.107.01 blower -- US MSRP $464.12

plus you will need the parts kit: 000.043.300.99 parts kit -- US MSRP $4.18

Loren,

Thanks for the reply. I have had the blower motor out and tested it while it is in my hand, deifinately corrosion issues. I put some lithium grease on it and it is working alright, but still cuts in and out.

Cheers

I would try to determine whether a VW cousin (Touareg) has the same blower motor, but with a different part number. It would probably cost less than 1/2 what the Porsche dealer wants for it.

I know that on a 986 Boxster, there is an equivalent motor made for a Jetta Wagon by the same manufacturer (Valeo) for 1/3 the price.

Does your defective blower motor have any factory markings on it, from either Valeo or VW?

Regards, Maurice.

Maurice,

It does have VW markings on it, I guess that is why I couldn't find a porsche #??? I got a hold of my local garage, and it is costing me $124.00CDN plus shipping and tax, quite a difference from the blower motor loren was talking about, at a MSRP of $464.12US

Good work, $124.00 CDN sounds a heck of a lot better!

When you actually get the part, if you could post the part number and details here (and maybe the source, also) it would help anyone with a Cayenne who runs into this problem in the future.

Regards, Maurice.

Sure thing,

I am just hoping it is the right part. Looks like I may need a new starter soon, I think that is WAY more expensive!! Anyone with a Part # for that?
