common faults we see
At Accelerate Automotive, we're well-versed in the unique intricacies of European vehicles, particularly Porsche. In our experience, we've encountered a variety of issues, some more common than others. Below, you'll find a list of frequent faults we see with these vehicles.
Are you experiencing any of these problems with your Porsche? Don't hesitate to contact us — we're here to provide expert assistance and solutions.
- Oil Leaks particularly from the Rear Main Seal and Timing Cover on the first and second-generation Porsche Cayenne with the V8 engines (4.5L, 4.8L), such as the S and Turbo variants. This is a labour intensive process due to the complexity of the engine layout.
- AdBlue System Malfunctions in Diesel Models. The vehicle experiences warning lights on the dashboard indicating issues with the AdBlue system, reduced engine performance, or the vehicle entering a limp mode to prevent further damage. The models that we have experienced this issue with are:
- Porsche Cayenne Diesel particularly in the second generation (E2) which started around 2010, these models have the 3.0L V6 TDI engine (CNRB and CVWA) and the 4.2L V8 TDI engine (engine code CKDA).
- Porsche Macan Diesel The Macan S Diesel, which has the 3.0L V6 TDI engine (DETA and DFGA), has had reports of AdBlue system issues, although less frequently compared to the Cayenne and Panamera.
- Electrical Issues may experience various electrical problems, including failing window regulators, erratic lights, and issues with the ignition switch. These are more common in the 911 and Boxster.
- Water Pump Failure is common in models like the 911, Boxster, and Cayman, water pump failure can lead to engine overheating. Symptoms include coolant leakage and high engine temperatures.
- Coolant Pipe Failures in models like the Panamera and Cayenne with V8 engines (4.8L), the coolant pipes can fail, leading to coolant leakage. This can result in engine overheating and requires immediate attention.
- Transfer Case Issues in Cayenne especially earlier models of the second generation (2011-2014), can experience transfer case problems, leading to jerky movements during acceleration and issues with the all-wheel-drive system.
- Electronic Thermostat failure - due to electronic or mechanical issues, resulting in incorrect engine temperature readings, overheating, or poor engine performance.
