Hi guys,

Whew... I think I finally settled on a car to get. I'm in the market for a 2008+ cayenne S and I think I know what to look out for, but it's been awhile.

I've been lurking on this forum since forever and I know that the 2008+ is the better option for reliability. This will be my daily DD. I will try and get a PPI done, but unfortunately a lot of the Porsche dealers around me aren't doing them due to litigation reasons :/. But! I will be diligent and find one. So, is there anything else I'm missing. I'm going to go look at a 2009 cayenne this week and before I go I want to make sure I have the necessary info to look for any obvious trouble spots. I know the coolant pipes aren't an issue (no plastic). But can anyone recommend me any info of what to watch out for.

I'm very sorry if this has been asked before. I did search, but I didn't see anything pop. Huge thanks guys!

Cheers!

 

I don't think the 4.8 cayennes have many if any issues. The only issue in my eyes would be MPG's, its a V8 what do you expect, but other than that I think you should be good to go. Check to see if they have a good service history.
