Porsche Cayenne, VW Touareg, Audi Q7: How To Replace A Tie Rod End and Steering Boot

In this video I show you how to replace a leaky steering boot and tie rod end on my 2005 Porsche Cayenne Turbo. My local dealer wanted over $600 to do this job and I was able to do it for less than $100. If you have a VW Touareg or Audi Q7 this video should help you as well.

Did you change the boot because it was leaking out power steering fluid? My Q7 spit out all of its power steering fluid from what appears to be the passenger side boot.

Do you have a video for the inner tie rod too?

What is the model of your cordless impact driver?

You know, when I see the bell ring on your channel, I am both excited and sad- excited to see a new video, sad that something else on the Cayenne has gone bad

Mike Ealy says:

Another excellent video! Thanks so much for putting this together. Hope your 928 is coming along. Would love to see videos on that if possible.
