    Working on replacing my high pressure fuel pump on a 2016 base cayenne. Everything is easy in terms of removal except h for the bottom left bolt. There's a hose that blocks it. Anyone know what hose that is and can I remove it or if there is any suggestions on how to get that last bolt out? Thanks!

    Thanks Loren I will pass that on to him.

    I would likely re-program the transmission control unit to default setting (using a PIWIS). Sometimes an electoral glitch can cause memory issues that can be cured by simple re-programming. Also, a good time to check for transmission or final drive faults while you have the PIWIS connected.

    this is a question for a friend of mine. he has a 2012 Turbo and his transmission shift hard when he goes in and wipes out the memory of the transmission it shifts great for a week or two then it goes back to hard shifting. Any idea what's going on?

    Hey guys the AC on the car stopped working and yesterday I hooked up the gauges and there was zero freon in the A/C, so for sure I have a leak. I hooked up my air compressor and I filled the AC with 135lb of air and today I was down to 50lb so I know it has a good size leak. I'm wondering is there a common problem with the AC that I should look at? I'm going to put in a few cans of freon with dye in it to see if I can find the leak. thanks 2008 S

    I’m chasing a fault with heavy steering and the only thing I can find through comprehensive diagnostics is the combination sensor is giving some rather spurious readings. There are no fault codes in any module in the car. When driving a short journey with diagnostic graphing enabled it seems to show either zero or 24 metres per second as a reading and nothing in between. This seems to manifest itself as really heavy steering all the time which makes the car a real chore to drive. i have replaced the combination sensor and it’s exactly the same with the new sensor. Anyone got any suggestions?

    No problem. Glad you got it sorted.

    Hi Loren. I have to apologize. it was really the fuse . Believe me, I have checked twice before i came here to ask for help. but now i went to my garage again looking for codes. There was no communication with the seat on the right side. no power. I have changed all fuses related to the seat. Et voila. It works. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR ATTENTION !!!
  30. Loren
    PM me your VIN and I will get the correct seat diagram for your car.
  31. ekstroemtj
    Thank you for answering Loren. Yes the seat is moving. forward , backwards, up and down. just the seatback is down like on the picture and not moving at all. It hit the seat behind
  32. Loren
    Did you say the seat does move? IIf not, then I would start with fuses.

    Would like to ask your advice please . Bought some days ago a "winter" car - which i better did not. Many issues which i did not realize. Anyway, i was working under the passenger side dash board. Wet floor issue and broken blower motor resistor. When i was down there i accidently pushed the button on the side of the seat and the seatback / backrest moved down. i havent even noticed . Now its not reacting anymore. Only possible to adjust the entire seat forward / backwards - up and down but the seatback is not moving at all. Did i broke the motor ? anything else i could do wrong? i need to inspect the mechanism under the seat. but how to take the seat out in this position ? the seatback is so low that i cant grab under. Thank you very much.

    Hey everyone, I'm nearly done wrapping up a cooling system refresh on my MY99 C2. I opted for the genuine Porsche 996.2 coolant tank. I'm having an issue getting a snug fit for the coolant tank sensor. I went with a unit from Hamburg technic. It seems possible to only slot the sensor in one direction. Once it's seated it's not possible to spin it in order to lock it into place. Am I running into an issue with the aftermarket sensor spec? Short clip of my issue below. Thanks in advance!
  39. ninetynine996
    Thanks Loren - it definitely was P1689. Adding a screenshot below. I ended up swapping out the ecu relay (behind the rear seats) for a fresh one, reset the codes and it hasn't come back yet. Hoping that did it! `

    I put it in my 2004 Turbo Cab and it works great. plug and play though playing content through your iphone is not as loud as the normal stereo... you don't have to purchase the NAV card; you can use apple carplay... works a treat. Hope that helps.

    Bit of an update... Have cleared all the transfer case and transmission codes through the replacement of the TC motor and fixing a bad connection at the drive selection switch. I still have the Gateway 1336 "CAN comfort OFF" fault along with Stability Management 1826: Steering Angle Sensor, "Terminal 30 Power Supply" fault and an Advanced Weight system 0470 "CAN single wire operation" fault. While these are persistent (and annoying) I don't see why they would be contributing to my no crank/start state. I went back and rechecked the trigger signal at the starter relay and I am getting a pulse but it isn't enough to trigger the relay (I have replaced and swapped the relay with a known working one.) Continuity of the wiring between the relay and the KESSY tests good. The ground of the KESSY module also tests good. Battery is new and good. I have run the KESSY test in PIWIS and the test sequence confirms the trigger signal but stops with "no response received." I have no faults with the KESSY. I know there are known issues with the KESSY components associated with the comfort access going bad but this seems like something different. Any thoughts....

    I have a 2006 C2S and was wondering if anyone has installed a PCCM+ (non Bose). How does it sound compared to the original stereo? I don't have Nav, is it possible to get navigation with the new one or do you have to buy all the other hardware to get it? Does PCCM+ receive the HD channels? TIA Bill F.

    For the steps #1: I don't know of what are the doubts about these steps as for the sq. #1 there is same button on the keyfob for all 996/986 to lock/unlock. Which cannot be pressed TOGETHER as it is just the same button. Brrr.... Steps #2: I never tried these steps but for 996/986 programming the keyfobs and immobilizer are separate procedures. Even if hypothetically these steps would add the 2nd keyfob to the car with shortened pins #1 and 4; the key needs to be programmed to the immobilizer.
