What a pain! I'll be doing this next week!
Excellent video, great description saved me time knowing all the hidden bolts. I ordered a tank of Amazon as well. How is your tank holding up?
Thanks to you and others on UTube, I’m a DIYer so far on my 2006 Cayenne S!
Thanks for sharing Dan. What were the symptoms that tell you your tanks were kaput?
Good information
Dan, I just purchased a 05 Cayenne Turbo, owner said the T's and Coolant pipes were converted to metal. However after only 3 days I got a low coolant warning. I filled the coolant and its leaking down the passenger wheel well. I don't see any leaks from the coolant tank. If it's leaking on the passenger side is that a sign it's the coolant tank?? What signs did you notice it was the tank? Or do you think its a bigger job?
Great stuff again. How did you identify that it was the coolant tank leaking?
I recently did the metal tee upgrades, pipes, etc… After getting it all done I accidentally overfilled the coolant tank. Took it for a spin and I was leaking coolant on the passenger side with liquid ending up as far as the the air filter box. I pulled and held 23 lbs with my Airlift purge/refill tool after adding back the coolant. I'm wondering if maybe it is my coolant tank possibly. I can't quite find where its coming from.
How do you keep you engine bay so clean? Looks great.
My brother, can you PLEASE do a video on changing the alternator.
