Another strange German design.
Jonny opens up a 2005 Porsche Cayenne to upgrade the leaking plastic coolant pipes with upgraded aluminum pieces.

Why not a new thermo?
Excellent Work !!!
These cayennes had a few flaws but they are very reliable after you do the fixes
I can’t believe how disposable these expensive German cars are. Having to tear apart engines for stupid plastic parts that get brittle with surprise – heat.
VW VR6 has the same crappy design and they nicknamed it the crack pipe. Who would of thought plastic would get brittle over time. Especially with heat cycles.
Love your channel, enjoying these videos a lot!! Glad you "exist" beyond hoovie's universe… I'm binge watching now
Why would you put a starter motor among all that heat???
Solving an issue maybe but creating a (huge) problem.
I have watched a few Videos doing the same job and you covered some steps the others didn't,also seems relax doing it.Almost gave me the confidence to do it but still not sure i want to attempt that.
They knew it was a bad design from the get go – but that extra nickel of cost "savings" pushed them forward.
A massive coolant leak with 65000 miles? If it were a Range Rover the comment section would full of typical criticism. Absolute garbage these modern Porsches. Built to a price.
I feel blessed not buying a Cayenne and getting a Subaru instead seeing the German engineering ingenuity.
I thought silicone spray would be helpful for tight o rings and hoses
