Peeps around here charge almost similar to what the dealer service dept charges, even found a shop who charges more than the dealer service dept.
Not sure,,,, the dealer gives 3yrs / 36k miles warranty while the indy shops don't offer that while the price is almost the same/similar.
No brainer here
ps> 2nd thought,,, I guess it requires connections to get a reasonable discounts from the indy shops? Since I'm sorta new to Porsche scene (only 2yrs here
)

$1369 is the best price I've seen--especially if it includes replacing those two tiny "T" joints in the back. Local dealer service supervisor quoted me $2,000 not inclding those to "T" joints--which go later on.
FYI the highest priced repair or set of reapirs AFTER the pipes burst was $9,000!
Apparently, that was covered under CPO warranty.
I guess that included a new starter and transmission seals.
However, there is another coolant manifold wled in the back of the engine that can go as well. I think excellence has covered the Cayenne's foibles well.

I had my Cayenne's coolant pipes replaced by these guys! Quick turnaround and awesome price! I drove the Cayenne from NJ to Quebec and back. No problems at all. They really do a great job! The last Cayenne on their original post is mine.
I'm glad you're happy Richard, enjoy!

Hi Elite Motorsports
Are you guys familiar with doing the torque converter seal that leak after the coolant pipe burst? I am pretty sure I am having that problem. I would like to bring it to you guys if price is good and experience in doing the job. Please let me know how much it will cost.
Thanks, Lou

If we have the time, it is a possibility but I wouldn't count on it.

Just drove the above car back from Elite with no surprises. Great Job. Thanks for posting my car Kai. Is that how dirty my engine is? Car is running great!
Had a great drive in to the city this morning. Car was perfect. So happy to have the peace of mind with the new pipes installed. The throttle feels a little snappier now? Morning temps just dropped from 70's to 49 degrees this morning. Forgot how much I love this car.
Just saw this right now, glad the car is running well. Enjoy!
