It’s not normal. It means there’s a leak somewhere in the system on that corner. The slight changes you see after a long period of sitting are normal and can be attributed to changes in temperature from when the car was first parked. The system uses ride height sensors at all four corners...

One thing that is really helpful is how much gravel mode firms the suspension. It seems as if the spring rate is as high or higher than in sport mode. it does a nice job of preventing the car from bottoming out. I have a Gen 1 Cayenne with air suspension, and prior to the purchase of the...

Your garage door may open and close about 20 times too

You can reset it when the screen is blank like that. Keep trying two fingers in the vicinity of the upper right of the screen. It usually takes me about 20 tries and then the reset works.

After the UpDate I’m also noticing higher temperatures when fast charging. You?

I’ve noticed this too. I had a stopover on the route. The stopover was the EA charger. I had to cancel the whole navigation to stop the heating.

Well done!

This is basic. Nothing fancy, no tools. It slides up from the bottom. Slide the rubber pad up the pedal, make sure the side are in the channel, then make sure the bottom of the pedal seats into the groove in the rubber. This should take you 1 minute. Or you can go to the dealer and spend...

Awesome!

Second question. You can’t. The car needs some time to preheat the battery, 2 miles isn’t enough. first question. If a dc fast charger is entered into the Nav system as a destination or stopover, the system will preheat the battery. This is true. When charging at home (AC charger) the...

I have a 20 year old Cayenne with Alcantara pillars. They’ve held up extremely well. No matting, just a littile fading from the sun on the a-pillars. Lower sections of the b-pillar have worn well. I may pursue wrapping the lowers of my b-pillars in leather. If they Turn out poorly, the...

It’s mechanical change amplified/emphasized with synthesized sound.

Best to use either silicon spray, or silicone grease. Both are safe on plastic and rubber. WD40 and other petroleum based lubricants do bad things to plastic and rubber over time. For the door handles, the spray is probably what you’re looking for.

When driving at slow speeds, the electric brake booster system will fade out regen braking and fade in hydraulic braking. There is a TSB that says something along the lines of, “Longer brake pedal travel can be expected at slower speeds.” It sounds like you’re experiencing this to the...

It was either a bad paint match from the beginning, or the clear coat is yellowing over time. I’d take it back and ask them to correct it.

That’s what is actually happening at lower speeds. The car shifts from 2nd to 1st.

No, never.

I’d do the flush. Oil tends to float on water, which means water sinks deeper into the system.

I’ll try and stay clear of the fray… while I agree that outdoor storage (especially near a port) isn’t the best. New cars generally have protective fil on them. This includes the wheels to prevent rain from splattering on The brake discs. These mitigations will help. Beyond those physical...
