I have a gripe, yes I know its 'just TV'. The recent Wheeler Dealer episode where they buy at wholesale from a dealer a well beaten '06/'07 Porsche Cayenne S Twin Turbo. Has sinking rear suspension, brake pulling, coolant leak, driveshaft vibration, etc.
As it turns out Mr. ex-Elmoussa solves most all the problems with little money spent and fanfare. Mike however takes the front calipers to a P-car specialist whos has the skill and the parts to rebuild them W/O needing to replace any hard parts.
As Mike is showing the guy the calipers, you can clearly see the newspaper-thin brake pads still loaded, there was a mention earlier in the program about brake pulsation.
Nearing completion of all the repairs Mr elmoussa proudly shows the new front brake pads with the money anti-rattle 'pods' and the camera picks up the new shiny rotors.
At the end where they list cost of parts and approx. man hours, conveniently left the front brake pads and rotor costs off of the list...……………………………..mmmmm.
I'm sure everyone here is aware of the big Brembo's that are specific to that platform and the OE / OEM pricing that goes with it
