No. Any immobilizer change requires reprogramming using a PST2 or PIWIS and your car's unique IPAS code (available only from Porsche).

996.641.142.00 temperature sensor -- US MSRP $14.07

You can try drying out your immobilizer and praying. If it has shorted out hen you have to get a new one AND have it programmed to your keys and DME.

You do have to re-login when you go to the Reviews section as it is a different application that treats cookies differently. The main site should work fine with IE7. It does for me.

... or a cracked tank.

Please have some patience - please allow 24 hours for responses to your questions. Check to see if anything fell into the fan area (under the pollen filter) and if it smells musty then the AC condensor drain may be plugged. If it is the drain then clear the drain and then run the heater as hot as it will go. It might also help to some disinfectant into the area of the heater core.

Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo are the same procedure. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...ost&p=78411

Please try a search here as window problems and causes have been covered many times here.

You need to have your car checked with a PST2 or PIWIS - they can individually test the circuit and likely tell you where the problem is.

There are different part numbers for the Cayenne Wheel Opening Mouldings depending on whether or not there are mud flaps installed.

999.500.128.00 Nut (new style)

Sorry, I don't see any instructions. Aren't they just installed with double stick tape?

Item 14?

My information comes from the Porsche OBD II manual (5.2.2) which covers your model year car. Yes, reset the DME. The adaption values are the TRA, TRA2 and FRA, FRA2. Most generic OBD II readers can not read those values.

:welcome:

000.044.500.08 is the kit. We always recommend the kit over individual parts. Use the -20 rear stabilizer (not the -15)

Sounds like a bad sensor or control unit. Porsche had a problem back in 2003 with these - but that was fixed. Best have your dealer/OPC out their PIWIS tester on it.

Model and year of your Cayenne please?

Yes, just be sure to mark the cables first.

If you are sure the plugs and connection to the plugs are fine then it could be a mechanical problem. Here is what the manual says: "Possible mechanical causes of faults Valve lifter chattering. This is caused by dirt in the valve lifter. When the Check Engine MIL lights up, a chattering valve lifter may also occur for a certain time. The DME control module registers (sporadic) misfiring at one or more cylinders. The adaptation values of areas 1 and 2 are normal. Remedy 1. Remove lifter bores, check for damage and blowout oil passages. 2. Replace all valve lifters (engine installed). 3. During the test drive, listen for valve lifter noises. Camshaft control badly adjusted. The camshaft control has changed. No chattering noises occur. The DME control unit indicates misfiring for the entire cylinder bank 1 or 2. The adaptation values in area 1 differ in bank 1 and bank 2 (e.g. TRA=0.02/TRA2=0.27), the adaptation values for area 2 are generally normal. Remedy 1. Reset camshaft control. 2. Road test vehicle. The adaptation values should be normal. VarioCam does not switch over completely. Cases have occurred in which the VarioCam of one bank was mechanically faulty. In these instances, the VarioCam had not switched over completely from power to torque valve timing. An indication of this problem is misfiring detected by the DME control module in the range of 1200 - 1500 rpm occurring in an entire bank. The adaptation values of areas 1 and 2 are normal. Remedy 1. Replace VarioCam. 2. Road test vehicle."
