It was really funny to see the guy Porsche sent from Germany to work on a Carrera GT that had gremlins all over at the same dealer, then moving on and working on my Cayenne, trying to fix it. He almost got it right. LOL

Needless to say, once warranty was over, car was gone.

So typical of early Cayennes and dealer mechanic "troubleshooting".

*plugs computer in* Computer shows no code.

"There, it's fixed!"

A monkey can plug the car to the computer and call themselves mechanic these days.
