I'm about to replace my valve body on my 2004 Cayenne Turbo, however this is quite confusing as it seems there are multiple different version of valve bodies with the same part number (955 325 039 00 ) From what I have found in researching, there are three visually different versions of this valve body, each pictured below. As you can see, there are two versions which have an additional 'port' or hole, one of these has a metal plate covering it, where as the other is left open. Finally, the third version has no port or opening at all. I ordered the original part number valve body for my 04 turbo, and I have received the variant in the first picture (3 port). Until I remove the transmission pan to do the replacement, I won't know whether or not this is the same or different as mine. Some things I have read suggest that the valve body simply had a different casting in newer years and these are interchangeable without an issue. What it says in the photo above seems to contradict this though, and suggests it is crucial that you use the same as what your car had originally. Another uncertainty regarding this is the TCU, and whether or not this needs to be changed or updated to suit different valve body versions. Searching for these questions on the internet is met with very little luck, and many contradictory answers. I would be extremely grateful if someone who is knowledgeable in this area can shed some light on this for me, as at this point I'm totally unsure about what is true and what isn't.

I have a 2004 Cayenne Turbo in need of a new transmission valve body (yep, that's been said many times before I know). However, it seems that since the last topics on this issue were posted back around 5-10 years ago it's become significantly more difficult and expensive to track down quality rebuilt valve bodies for these cars. Many of the businesses that people used to reccomend such as RevMax no longer supply these valve bodies, and looking online most of the businesses that claim to sell them look incredibly shady and untrustworthy. On eBay, most rebuilt valve bodies for sale are cheap knockoffs from China or from dodgy looking shops in the US that claim they are rebuilt but they've just come straight out of old cars (as per buyer feedback). There has to be something in between all of these questionable units and a genuine brand new one which is something like $2,500 (or nearly $4000 in Australian dollars which is my local currency). Has anyone gone through this process in recent times and managed to find a quality rebuilt unit without having to go to Porsche for a brand new one? Any advice would be thoroughly appreciated.

Hello I have a 1999 c2 manual with 72000 miles. Yesterday I find oil dripping from, as i looks, front end of the gearbox. The undertray is quite wet from oil, seems i must be oil under pressure, see pictures. On my inspection I did not find any loose bolts or anything wrong, or oil dripping form the gearbox itself. But as you see from the pictures, a lot of oil has been leaking. As far as I concern there is no place in front end of the gearbox oil could leak from.No loose bolts or anything. So what happens here? einsv996

Hey everyone, i own a 2010 porsche Boxter 2.9L with the PDK transmission.. yesterday after leaving the car for a 4 days i started it and went for a drive.. when i turned it on again, i got a warning message “emergency transmission run” and the car became very jerky through gearshifts and wouldnt accelerate properly.. after turning it on and off the message went away and it drove just fine but then it kept re-appearing mid drives and becomes very jerky and clunky...ive noticed since i had the car that the gearbox was sometimes clunky or would make a noise when changing gear but the dealership said that was fine and normal since its a PDK, the car is at 59,000km so its time for a transmission fluid change... could this be a low voltage problem, or transmission fluid? The reverse gear works just fine.. has this happened to any other owners?

The tiptronic is actually excellent but im a manual man at heart. The car has very few miles and the value is high so the swap could be worth it. (Theres no way I’d sell it and buy a manual as I’m only the second owner and I knew the first owner very well). Does anyone have real experience or steps I’d need to go though and costs?

Hi all, I was wondering if you guys can help me, I broke my stock manual gearbox on my Carrera 4 model 2000 (96.30). So I bought a second hand one but its from a 2003 carrera 4, it looks very similar and codes 96.31 Getrag. My question is: do I have to make any changes like flange, etc or does it fit perfectly? Thanks in advance!! Alvaro Madrid -
Hi I have a question please I wonder if someone can answer? I have a 2004/05 4.5V8 Twin Turbo, Tiptronic. When driving normally, leaving the car in normal D (Drive) the car is quick to shift gears between 2000 and 3000rpm, going up the gears as quickly as it can, often leaving me in too high a gear and being very sluggish. I've recently noticed, if I turn off the PSM button, the car shifts alot later in the revs, between 3500 and 4500 and in doing so, always sits just on the turbo and feels so much more responsive. flick the PSM back on, and the car returns back to its sluggish ways, trying to climb the gears far too early. If I drive the car in manual/tiptronic (I do the majority of the time once the car is warm) I tend to drive it changing between 3000 and 4000 rpm. The gearbox is meant to remember the way I drive and respond accordingly, however doesn't seem to be learning?? I do wonder if its the underboost (boost leak) problem I've been trying to get to the bottom of, is affecting it, by the car flipping into limp home mode and wiping the gearchange memory? I'm showing no error codes on the iPhone Rev application, however am currently unable to stick the durametric program into the car as I have switched from PC to Mac. I've had the car into the dealer and mentioned the early gearchange and they said sometimes the gearbox settings can stick and reset it for me, however it doesnt seem to make a difference. Can anyone shed any light on this? ... does the car have a different engine / gearshift map without PSM on?? Thanks Chris -
Hi guys. First time here for me. I have bought the Cayenne s and have som trouble with it. The car was standing out side over night in about -5 Celsius. In the morning when I started the car the PSM default whent upp in the display. I tried to restart the car but it did not disappear. When I was driving the car the gear box did not whant to change any gears. Think it's running on 2 or 3 gear all the time. I live in the northern part of Sweden and there are no porche dealers here. So I took the car to the only guy who has the Porche computer. When we connected the computer it says: tiptronic not found. Abs DME control module 1314. 0668 vehicle voltage terminal30. 1315 tiptronic controll module. 1299 gateway. The mechanic says he can't enter the PSM system and erase the faulty codes. So he has no clue what to do. The nearest porche dealer is about 1000 km from me, so know the car stands I my garage and I don't know what to do with it. Please, help me if you can Sorry if my spellings is bad, Regars Peter from a cold norther part of Sweden
