Questions on an 06 Cayenne Base by paul_philly
Nov 06, 2007 (5:32 am)
Reply
Hi everyone. I just bought an 06 Cayenne base (with just about every option), but I'm new to the Porsche family so I had some questions:
1. Are there any recurring issues with this vehicle that I should know?
2. Does stability control, Electronic brakeforce disribution and 4 channel brakes come standard (I have the preferred package).
3. Does the warranty cover wear & tear items or just the traditional bumper-to-bumper mechanical failures? I have the extended certifed pre-owned warranty.
4. What maintenance is really required and how often should I expect to change the brakes/tires? Additionally, why $200 for an oil change?
 
That's it for now. Any help I can get here is greatly appreciated. BTW, germancarsforums.com isn't really that good. Edmunds forums are very good and I owned several Acura's where acurazine was very good as well. Can anyone recommend a good Porsche forum other than edmunds?

hey mudman
 
yes....i am around,,,,but due to work, home , family, etc....i am here less....
 
all is well with my cayenne....
 
I also got the 100K warranty.
 
one quick suggestion.....You can get cheap , inexpensive tires from internet , either on ebay or craigslist... for your cayennes.
 
There is a set of 19" wheels and tires for only $300 in dublin, CA.
 
I am sure happy that we only need oil changes every 15,000 miles....
 
take care...and see you around....

1- there were some minor issues, but those have been worked out
2- they should be in your owners manual. Some cars have different options than others. I am not sure about cayenne base.
3- warranty does NOT cover wear and tear items.
4- Engine should run with no problems , just simply follow maintenance schedule. You do not need a $200 oil change...
 I buy my oil at Autozone or costco, and go to the local oil changer...whom I know well and they change out everything for me..... I go to my trusted mechanic for some routine checks....and back to dealership for major checks....

Thanks Highender for the information. I was not aware that service could be done at places other than the dealer.
 
Dows anyone know what can be used cheaply & easily to increase HP on the 06 Cayenne Base?

Ignition problem on Cayenne S after fuel refill by chelsea2

Hello all, new to the group and new to Porsche, need some help please. Just bought a 2004 Cayenne S (Semi Auto). When I start the engine after refilling the petrol, it sort of goes on igniting and then cuts off, it does not start up as normal, but it always starts up on the second try. Am I doing something wrong?? Not sure if warranty will cover.
 
Live in England...... Many Thanks

The 2006 Cayenne Turbo S has better exterior styling vs 2008 Cayenne Turbo in my opinion. I really drilled down both models before deciding to by the Turbo S. Porsche did not produce 2007 model and i think they did not improve the look over the 2006.
 
That said there nothing like the ride,power and luxury.....Very limited production of 2006.
