Crankcase ventline causing Tiptronic problems

[Pekka Lampela]

Hi

 

At somepoint I noticed that Tiptronic gear change was quite odd. There was clunking, irrational gear changes and finally engine fault indicator was lit.

I opened the hood and heard somekind of sizzilng noise from the engine,took the first cover off and noticed that the vent line was cracked.Of course I had to use my fault code reader in order to be able to locate problem. Air leak between air mass flow and carburetor.With Gorilla tejp the problem was solved and now I am waitingfor a new hose to come from US because Porsche dealerships are not so many here in northern Finland.

Hope this info is useful to someone who has this Tiptronic clunking problem.

Many times this kind of leaks are the reason for a crazy shifting behaviour. The problem is always to locate the leak. Glad you could find👍
