Porsche Cayenne Fuel Line Fix

Crouching Tiger Hidden Cayenne

If you drive a Porsche Cayenne produced between November 30 2006 and January 18 2008, please pay a visit to your service center. A total of 18,856 Porsche Cayenne SUVs manufactured during the period needs to have their fuel line rearranged as there is a possibility of slight movements of the engine when traveling causing the fuel line to come in contact with the engine compartment cladding. This causes a knocking sound and in some cases abrasion markings on the fuel line.

Out of 5 complaints of knocking sounds worldwide, there was one case of abrasion markings. As a preventive measure, Porsche has decided to modify the fuel line layout of the vehicles. The procedure is free of charge and will take an estimated 40 minutes. Customers that are affected will be advised.

    i dont even know why people bother to listen to jeremy clarkson. he is a self confessed ferrari fan, of course he is going to say porsche design=lazy. The facts are porsches outsell every other supercar maker in the world, and are also the most financially capable. They have struck the perfect formula, and have continued to stick to their values and long heritate. Their customers also demand that their porsches look the way they look today. Are you going to argue with your customers, or listen to people who won’t buy a porsche?
