My mech did a check of the vac lines on mine as well (I assume he used a gauge, as well as the soapy water method). We were hoping for a simple solution, but you should see the picture of the...

Agree with PTEC. This is likely. I had same issue. The problem is, you need a p-car shop with a PIWIS to do it.
I was able to get all the parts on-line, which were fairly cheap. The valve cover is...

Thanks! That's the kind of sanity check that I'm hoping for. One of those things that seems obvious, but if you go a long time between having to do a repair, you lose the memory...

2008 3.6L Rough Idle after diaphragm replacement

I assumed that I would have to replace the sensor, if it broke, but good to know it can be cleared. I agree that the back button on Android is problematic.

I went through a bunch of the menu...

Hi! I bought this, and tried it out yesterday. The Launch software is not as intuitive as one would think, and the manual is worthless. Where do you go in the menu to reset the service intervals? DO...

Agree on all. Eric does awesome work. Wrench day would be cool. Need to turn off my service light, as it was out of synch with last service. I really would like some advice on how to do the V6 valve...

+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...

Is your vehicle a V-6? I was getting ready to do same, but can't find any instruction for V-6 valve cover removal.
Thanks!

I agree.
I've read that you should loosen the rear bolts first, but if I have no luck, I'll try to loosen the front ones.

I'm already past that. I assume that there is a dead cell in the battery. That's why I was asking for an alternative.

Dead Battery - how to move seat

I let my 2008 Cayenne (v-6) sit in the garage too long without starting, and the battery is dead. I tried to charge it at the posts in the engine compartment, but while doing that, I get intermittent...

The disco was a drunk rhino, and not anywhere as fast. Only 218HP to move about 5300 lbs, and bad gearing to boot. Once you got it up "on plane", it rode fairly well. Handling was wretched. The...

Ouch. So glad I didn't go. I was hoping for $9k, but might have gone to 11. After hearing what you said, 9-10K was about it.
