The Reality about Cayenne S engine woes
 

So much has been whispered, said and written about the engine failure of the first gen V8, that it is difficult / impossible to separate the reality from the "myth" - does anyone on this forum have some factual information on this?
what is(are) the origin(s) of the issue?
is there a quantification of the occurence, i.e. percentage of the truck affected?
what are the tale-tell signs of an impending failure?
what is the fix and the costs thereof?

Hopefully, responses to this thread will provide all of us with useful knowledge.

thank you.

Rennlist has a much more active Cayenne group.
