Thanks. Blackstone is where I got the kit.

I was trying to avoid waiting for an oil change, although there really isn't any particular urgency here.

I agree with that and that is why I am wondering where I would collect it from if I DID just stick a tube down there.. If I got any oil I don't know where it would be "from" because I don't know what...

In my '14 GTS I had a front diff go out as well as a transfer case (latter covered under warranty). 88k miles.

It seems like you know the answer.

There are people that do next to nothing (just a good wash and maybe a clay bar) and just throw ceramic on their cars. That works, but it's just not as good.

I have a 2014. Easy DIY job. No need to have a "backup" plugged in. Nothing is lost.

You just need to remove the seat with a proper "triple-square" bit. I just unplugged all the connectors - and...

Well, dealer tells me that it's my front differential. I'm sort of surprised by that. I guess I will STFF and see what else has been posted about this.

Yup. If you have decent summer tires, they will pop like crazy in the cold, specially starting out backwards or forward with the steering cut hard.

Not sure about alignment. Tires are pretty new. It wouldn't hurt to check that in any case.

Fronts are 2018. Rears 2019

It doesn't seem purley speed-related. It does it when I take off easily (which is most of the time) and at that time I am probably in gear 3 or 4. Slowing down to that...

2014 Cayenne GTS - Noise

I am getting a VERY faint noise that is like a howling ("woo woo") occasionally when taking off from a stop. It's in a fairly low gear, probably 3rd or 4th or so. It's literally like wind noise vs...

Nope. No programming lost at all. That would be poor design in a modern car, IMO. I know what you are saying though - in some cars that used to happen.

That said, sometimes you could get a config...

If you can do that, more power to you. I found it way easier to move it totally out of the way. It's already unbolted anyway. It's just a matter of unplugging a few connectors to make it totally go...

Battery Replacement

After being quoted $1000 to replace the battery in my 2014 GTS I decided to knock it out myself, but first of course I looked for YouTube videos. There are several out there but they tend to show the...

Wow. A sane answer that does not involve lawsuits! Give this man a cigar. I'd like to know that as well.
