My first Cayenne post. I know next to nothing about this vehicle.

2 months ago I paid a visit to the local dealer and a mechanic I know did an engine drop. He said it had a coolant leak and I asked him why you had to drop the engine to fix what I thought was a leaking hose. He said you needed to drop the engine to fix it.

I took some generic pictures. Back then I had no clue where this leak was coming from, nor did I care, since I am a Boxster guy.

Today, I go in the shop again, and there are no Boxsters apart to take pictures of.

Just another Cayenne. Same problem. So this time I took more detailed pictures.

From what I remember, I was told there are 2 or 4 plastic coolant tubes. The plastic splits. And the only way to get to them to replace them is to drop the engine. Was told there is no TSB on this yet. There might be a new part numbers for these plastic tubes.

A lot of Cayenne's have this problem, starts after approx. 100.000 Km. Looks like a sort of RMS problem for Cayenne's.
