Local Porsche dealer estimated $1500 to $2000 to fix my AC on my 2016 Porsche Cayenne GTS, I fixed it for $100.
this is how I replaced my blower motor when my AC was not working. I knew something was going wrong with my AC blower when it wouldn’t blow as strong when on the max setting. then other times it wouldn’t turn on right away some times taking 5 minutes before the blower would turn on. so before it total went I ordered an Aftermarket new blower motor for $95 and resistor for $30 not knowing the resistor was already included with the blower motor. after a few more weeks my blower motor completely stopped working and it was time to install the new parts.

just make sure you enter in your car year model to confirm it fits your specific vehicle.
removing the glove box is not necessary but is helpful if you want to see what you are working on.

5.5mm, not 7/32 socket.
Fantastic video, thank you for keeping it moving yet covering all the details- very well done.
"…and I noticed something else broke.." LOL I feel your pain, brother. I have a 2016 GTS as well, and I am baffled at what I have had fix since owning it. Especially because I have also own a 2004 Boxster S and have not had to repair one single thing. (Knock on wood) Excellent video and great instruction. I will be referencing it as I do my own blower motor replacement!
I can confirm, you don’t need to remove the glove box. I was able to install without removing it. When you remove the screws near the passenger side where the hidden screws are located, take care not to drop them behind the plastic panel. When putting them back I put some tape on the screw and socket to keep the screw from falling off because it’s tight and hard to see the screw holes. Also I recommend changing out the cabin filter while your down there with the panel off, mine was pretty dirty and I had the new one already on hand. The results are amazing, hurricane wind blowing now, lol. Thanks for the video, very straight forward. God Bless
Great presentation! Gonna do mine as soon as the replacement shows up. Thanks
Nice video. I did the same repair. Any one needing to do this repair should have an easy time following your clear instructions.
About to order one from your link. My wife’s 2016 Cayenne diesel fan motor was coming on sometimes but mostly not at all. On the rare occasion it does come on, it’s nice and cold. It’s getting hot here in Texas so momma needs a new blower. Hope this fixes the problem. Thanks for not making a 30 minute video blabbering about stuff we really don’t care about. To the point!
That clip on fan blade might be a balance weight
