my mate has just sent me this vid of his cayenne and it sounds just a little bit fucked

he says that all of a sudden it's gone "poof!" and now it sounds like a diseasal and it's got no power

has he just blown a boost pipe or has he blown a turbo?

or even the engine?

 

shit, no vid

hang on

 

Dojj if its sounding like a smoker prob more like a feked top end , rings or well could be a lot of things !

 

Error codes p0300 and p0304 have come up on my obd tester

Anyone shed any light on that?

Plus, it's not rattling anymore, it's whisper quiet

 

P0300 is multiple misfire detected and p0304 is misfire on cylinder number 4

Coilpack? Variocam actuator

Ginge

 

cheers for that

when you press the throttle there is a pause, then a "woosh" and then the engine revs up so it takes about a second from when you put your foot down to the engine actually revving up

in this sort of condition is the car still in a driveable state or would he be better off getting it recovered to the garage to be looked at properly?

 

Being what it is and the cost of parts/labour i'd get it taken into somewhere and looked at, it could be as simple as a spark plug in the end,better safe than sorry though I guess.

Inlet or exhaust manifold gasket?

 

He's getting it recovered and I'll let you know what happens

May be a small can of coke at a car show in it for you as a reward too

 

Your friends have far to expensive cars!

 

It's lucky it's not his brothers 911
Or his 456
Or his 599

 

The AA arrived to inspect it
They said cool pack number 4 was broken
They they put it on the back of a truck and then sent it on it's way to Porsche

Remind me to buy you a coke at ford fair

 

Will be coilpacks 99%. Common problem. Change them all and the plugs at same time. Easy DIY job.

Get parts from Jasmine Motorsport. Genuiine were about a tenner each last set I bought. Plugs a little more.

blimey!!! that cheep

he thought they were going to cost millions, i'll tell him now, and he'll owe you a can of coke at ford fair as well

 

at this rate he will have to keep an eye out down co-op for a buy one get one free deal on a six pack

hope its that cheap, makes a change with most cars now adays.
