Feeling your pain as many other first gen owners probably do, in fact you need to love these cars to keep repairing all the things that come up. I just paid a lot for a full rebuild of my 4.5 manual, because I really want to keep the car for longterms. I hope your engine is fine, everything else you'll fix over time. Would be great to see a video of your cylinder bores, good luck!
I really appreciate that! I’ll keep everyone updated if consumption gets worse!
Good update! No deal breakers in there though, so keep on truckin!
Check with Firestone. They do lifetime alignments for around 150$.
Awesome video! Just starting down the rabbit hole and this highlighted a bunch of things to be aware of!
Good looking rig! Love these vehicles.
The temp at 3/4 is not an issues at all ..the coolant tank is the weak point as it’s 2 halves that are glued together..and the glue deteriorates over time..the pressure then pops them apart, common issue 50 bucks part, change every 2 years for peace of mind.
Bore scoring only happened on 955 mostly as I understand it.
Not too bad tbh. Seems like you’re sorting it out and fixing some of the specific things you need for overlanding. I had to fix a whole bunch of issues in mine and now it’s sorted, although, I suspect I may need a new starter, soon. Keep up the good work, man! I saw you did the OC rally💪🏼
I didn’t do the full rally! I just met them at the drive in, and went with a couple friends to the salt flats after for some filming and photos!
@@HarrisonSchoen ohh I see. Still looked like fun🙂
Definitely gonna chill with my lifting for a bit. Great video. Liked and subbed.
You got it fam!
You hit some points that I have issues with too. The coolant thing I have the same issue. I’m going to install some spal fan in front to help out when the temps start to climb. It will be more notable when you do 35’s. I also have noise coming from the front suspension. I’m thinking it’s the heim joints in the struts at the top. As far as the oil consumption maybe you should go a little thicker on oil to slow it down. If it internal the damage is already done. Just slow it down till it time to fix. I ran into the same issue with the wiring on the A pillar for my light bar but car quest sells a flat wire that fits perfect in there. A little tight at the top but with some slicing spray it slides right in. I to was scared about cracking the window. As far as the sub frame moving I haven’t had any issue with that but I did rough up the faces of the subframe spacers so it bites a little more.
Other than that it’s all good.
Keep up the good content they be some issues we all have to cross as this is all new to us
Thank you man! And are you running the Eurowise tubular control arms? I found out yesterday my Heim’s are definitely blown
Thanks for the honest feedback. I now own a 955 Cayenne S
How are you liking it??
@@HarrisonSchoen we love it, it's so smooth and powerful! Handles the corners so well, but also drives nice on dirt roads. It's currently on 20s, so I need to find some 18" wheels and tyres for it. I just unblocked the sun roof drains as we had wet carpets. I now need to upgrade the cardan shaft bearing bracket, as there's there's slight vibration. Then do a major service and change all fluids and filters.
@@offroadoffshore8987 Mine is still extremely comfortable even on 35" tires! I just put sway bars on and it still handles like a Porsche!
There are problems with any modified vehicles - going to 35 wheels will put more strain on the engine, drivetrain and suspension. Hope it all goes well and will continue watching as I would like to buy one and modify it for off road as well.....or maybe boring and get a toyota or nissan.
Either way, I’m glad you’re here with me watching me build this thing out for some serious trails!
Try Pro 4x4 in Provo and ask for Dave about the rear bumper. Also I’ve string alligned my car for the past 2 years and it’s saved me hundreds. It’s pretty easy to do and super cheap
Thank you dude! I’ll check them out. I’ll look into the string alignments also!
I've done that too. People think it's crazy but it works.
Well hopefully it all works out for you
Hi, thanks for sharing info on your Posche build. I am currently looking for a 2008-2016 Porsche Cayenne. There are many different models but my question is, do all Cayenne comes with a rear locker standard or do I need to look for a specific models or feature. Also, what is your thought about the air suspension on these cars? Anyway, thanks your content.
Air suspension is acceptable if light trails. Anything hard you’ll want coils!
None come standard with rear locker. You have to be fortunate to find one with it spec’d!
I started looking at Cayennes the other day and ran across this video that is exactly what you need to know to make the correct purchase.

There are a few packages that have lockers. Good Luck!
Does that have a separate trans cooler? If not that could be causing the high coolant temp from the transmission lines running through the rad.
I don’t believe it has a separate trans cooler!
Ive had problems with my '08 as well. 1 Cardan shaft center support bearing and now the transfer case is slipping. She also needs motor mounts replaced, YUCK!
Ahh, it all usually happens at once!
The exhaust sounds like a turbo from your other video, is it upgraded or just due to the cutoff? I'm finally getting my '04 back running after sitting for 2 yrs. Thanks for your channel and the motivation!
Just due to the cut off! a turbo is actually quieter with a muffler delete than the N/A engines! Turbos muffle the sound.
@@HarrisonSchoen Wow, Never knew that...Thanks!
Check if valve cover is leaking oil on to starter.
Have all the starter cables checked before doing the starter again. The same generation 997 has the issue..I speak from experience
I appreciate the tip! I believe that could be an issue. I’ll try to capture it in a future video!
Dope
So my Touareg had the issue with repeated O2 sensor issues I replaced the sensors that didn’t work then the Cats just to have the light come back a month or so after that the car bricked it’s self. I was told by several people that the ECU might need to be updated I ignored it thinking it will figure it’s self out but nope it bricked it’s self. I had it towed to a VW dealership and they replaced the ecu programmed it and 3500$ later it’s back with me and never had another light besides knock sensor that needs to be replaced which is my fault lol.
That sounds terrible and I hope it’s not the case with mine 😅😅😅
Can't really complain about cheap chinese LEDs and roof racks doing cheep chinese LED and roof rack things. As for alignment (especially with big tires like this) find a shop such as Pep Boys--for a very small upcharge you can buy the better service package with unlimited re-alignments your vehicle for up to 3 years, even if you upgrade components such as shocks or control arms. As for fabrication work, if you can't weld it up yourself, you absolutely need to find recommendations for good shops. All that said, that is a lot of oil consumption and you should probably be checking and filling every 500 miles, not 1500. If there are no leaks, then you are probably right--the cats could be in jeopardy. The motor can withstand a bit of oil burning, but those cats are going to get expensive.
Me about to lift my Cayenne and hearing all this makes me wanna cry. I guess it’s an investment tho!
Totally worth it
Totally worth it, but we’re still in the pioneering the platform stage!
Pcv valve could be causing the oil consumption and engine codes.
I’ve heard that’s possibly a reason!
Doesn’t the Cayenne lift on it’s on own? Do you need a lift kit
4” lift on mine
Ratified motorsports here in Minnesota can help you. They’re very confident in Porsches
If only I wasn’t so far from Minnesota! Haha
So most of issues are with the add on accessories and the mods
Most of them yes!
How many miles on your car?
145,000 miles!
Commenting for the algorithm
The popping is probly CV joints.
Nope, my CV’s don’t make noise. Ever
@@HarrisonSchoen and here I thought I figured it out . My Subaru had CV issues…..replace them and that solve the noise issue.
Do you think a 2005-2009 Cayenne with 100k + miles is really un reliable and extremely expensive to fix? I just don’t know if this is a stereotype because it’s a porche or that’s the reality. Because to me it seems like an awesome suv.
They’re very reliable
@@HarrisonSchoen dang bro thats great to hear
Cayenne are marmite..love or hate.:you love the car but hate the costs each year 🤦♂️
Wildpeaks are TERRIBLE. I don't know anyone that didn't have vibration. I am considering moving from a GX to a Cayenne because of your videos, but this is scaring me! lol
My 35’s now (Toyo open country AT3’s are incredible)
If you’re already in a GX, I’d say don’t switch, but if you can you should pick up a cayenne soon so you don’t miss out on the gains as they rise in value.
@@HarrisonSchoen how long does a set of tires last you?
These things look cool but I couldn’t imagine over landing one unless you dont care about money. I remember seeing multiple cayennes at the North Toronto Auction back in the early 2010s and they would almost never receive bids or meet the the reserve. So I briefly considered buying one, when looking at one (wanna say it was like a 2003) found all the paperwork inside of the glove Box. Stack of repair bills (like 20) not one of those bill was under $2500 and some where as high as 6000. I cant remember what exact work was done but that was enough to scare me away. Ive had 2 4Runners, honestly the most reliable worry free vehicles ive ever owned.
OIL LOSS .......................Mate I just feel like i am adding to you list but I went from no name sh@t oil which I would lose a lot .
I then went to the # grade for my treg ...Fuch !!!! and have not seen anything negative in 2x services or 30km+ (2years) .... AND !!! i don't know if its just me but last oil and filter change 500kms ago my oil temp seems slower to rise ................. don't know but look after her and then she will rock you ................... I use Fuch... german made and so far happy
…and the heading is cruel..not every thing is broken.
Gotta get people to watch it somehow! Haha
