Reviews of OEM Porsche parts For Business

Air suspension is also not as scary as other euro rigs, the bags have steel cases, all the lines are standard 6mm and a rebuild kit for the compressor is only 100-200 bucks, it also makes these the ultimate tow rigs, heaps of torque and a very stable towing experience.

Porsche Australia is brilliant with parts. We needed a fuel pump for a 1974 911 which was only made for about three years and they offered to get one made at a price that wasn’t too unreasonable. In the end we rebuilt what we had. I have yet to find a part that they can’t supply except doors for a 928. And they have world pricing, so a genuine Porsche part costs the same here as say in the US.

My 993 C4S with “big reds” squealed when I did a brake job using aftermarket pads (Textar OEM replacements). After putting up with it for a few years, I swapped them back to Porsche Genuine pads. Squeal was gone instantly.

I switched to OEM pads and bedded them in with a few heavy stopping cycles and no squeals since.

I found the GT3’s brakes to be very easy to modulate. They bite very quickly for carbon ceramics and give you the impression that they could bail you out of most situations. Since the GT3 feels so damn planted, braking also feels like a total non-event. You don’t feel the weight shifting forward in a dramatic fashion or anything like that, brake engagement feels very immediate.

So far, PCV valve, all fluids done & flushes, did transfer case fluid & was informed water pump leaking. Told them do it.

My 2017 has 70k now. I also had to do shocks and mounts all around and 2 control arms.

Watch out for the cardon shaft replacement, coolant hose replacement, the entire roof fabric replacement, the electrical harness turning hard like spaghetti and the soft plastic in the car all turning to sticky glue. I loved driving my Cayenne. V8 noise all the time. Bit pricey for maintenance.

Lol as someone who comes from a Porsche owning family, the 265 tires up front and 295 in the back will automatically bankrupt you. Nothing like looking for a winter set of tires and wheels knowing you have to get Audi spec 5x112 wheels with tires wider than dump trucks that are triple the cost of 17 inch 225 tires with half the life.

Almost did the same thing with my 992.2 GTS with the same tires. I was doing 10kph UNDER the speed limit since I was all over the fucking place. Horrible tire for the rain.
