Porsche Recalls 18,000 Panameras And Cayennes Due To Engine Problems by AutoJoshNG: 3:16pm On Jun 17, 2017
Porsche is having trouble with the engines in certain earlier Panameras and Cayennes. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, some of those vehicles “have camshaft controllers that may come loose inside the engine, thereby causing the engine to stop.”

Most Porsche owners won’t like their car engine stalling, the company has recalled 17,986 of them in the United States alone.

Among them are Panameras – including base, S, 4, 4S, and Turbo models – from the 2010-12 model years, and certain 2011 Cayenne S and Cayenne Turbo SUVs as well.

The recall will necessitate the replacing of the fastening screws on the camshaft adjusters, which shouldn’t take much time.

The question is, would Porsche Nigeria accept such recalls?

They are recalling 2010-2012 cars in 2017? Anyway, "It's better to be late than never".

Since 2010-2012 : they're just recalling to change fastening screws. Nigerian owners must have bought it at Ladipo _Kazeem will change it. We troubleshoot our problems ourselves here.

Typing..



I honestly do not seem to get where myth of Porsche being reliable got started. This is brand with cars driven at very low miles. Which we all know should result in less breakage. However, they have got everything. When i say everything i mean - from electronic gremlins to motors that require tons of very expensive maintenance, just like every other German performance car.

Porsche no be Toyota we u fit drive for 100,000miles and na only only gear oil u go change.


Disclaimer: Before you qoute me saying rubbish. I am not saying porsche is not a beautiful machine to operate. But dont kid yourself, every used Porsche can sting you with a very nasty repair bill in a way that a more ordinary performance car never will.
