Dear Enthusiasts,


Is there a DIY for replacing the Valve Cover for the 2012 base V6 Porsche Cayennes? I had the Check Engine Light comes on with codes:


1) P050700 - Idle Control Speed Above Setpoint
2) P218700 - Bank 1 Fuel Metering System too lean at idle speed
3) P218900 - Bank 2Fuel Metering System too lean at idle speed


Also curious because the CEL showed up right after I filled up on gas. When the car is in Park, the rpms revs up and down from 1000 - 1500.


Coincidentally, the fault code P261A00 - Coolant Pump 2 Open Circuit code also showed up.
I wonder if they're related and if not why? I am told that this is the auxiliary water pump. However, I don't see my temperature rising.


Please help. I've only had the car for 2 months and am very new to the forum.


Thanks in advance.

+1 on this.
I was getting ready to do the same to my 2008, and only find instruction for the v8's.

If someone can point me to proper removal of the V6 valve cover to replace the diaphragm in the air oil separator, I'd also appreciate it.

Thanks!
