From what I read everyone qualifies. If you just purchased yours send in the new owner card from your manual and I assume they will mail you the info.

This could be an even greater Christmas present than my Cayenne itself. I, too, just picked up an 04 S with 67k. I'd imagine I can't just bring them in; they have to swap it out. The dealer is kindof a drive for me...

WOW...I just bought a used 2004 with 84,750 miles from a BMW/Porsche dealer in Virgina. I noticed the idle, when warm, is a little rough. Sounds like a classic coil issue. As noted by another poster, this may be an early Christmas gift!

I changed out my coils in April. I wonder if Porsche will reimburse the price of the coils?
It would be nice if they added the coolant tubes and cardan shaft.

...and I just bought a used 2004 with 67k from a Mercedes dealer in Virginia that's got the same issue. Mmm, sounds like we'll be visiting a dealer soon.

I just received mine today. Yes Porsche will reimburse you for previous coil repairs. It says that if you have already paid to have the repair completed you may receive a reimbursement if you meet the following requirements.
1. You own or have owned a 2003-2006 model year Cayenne.
2. You have paid to replace the ignition coils for the concern described above. (The concern listed above relates to various problems with the ignition coil that results in illumination of the 'Check Engine' warning indicator. )
3. The repair was performed before the date of this letter and vehicle mileage did not exceed 100,000 miles at the time of replacement.
4. You have an original or legible copy of the paid repair order or invoice showing your name, description of concern, charges of parts/labor, repair date, mileage data, and name and address of the authorized Porsche dealer or licensed repair facility).
On a separate note:
My question is if the concern relates to "various problems with the ignition coil that result in illumination of the "Check Engine" warning indicator" will they change the coils if the check engine light is not on? It goes on to say that should you notice the illumination of this indicator, contact your preferred Porsche dealer without delay. Last time my coils were cracked and repaired under warranty the check engine light was not on.
