So i guess this is my fault for not fixing this preemptively....
My 08 GTS decided to spray the highway with coolant from the back of the engine. But the post is not about that.... What i am pissed about is the damn tow hook that is in the kit with the jack and the rest of the goodies at the back of the car doesn't fit a single tow hook hole.
Like What The Freaking Hell?
Tow truck came, I open up the bumper covers try to get the tow hook in there and the bolt is two sizes bigger than the threads in the bumpers. Has anyone seen this or am I "especial"?

You know its a left hand thread, right? Or did some git before you put the wrong tow hook in? Not likely a porsche factory issue

You beat me to it. The tow hooks are reversed thread, or left hand thread....I'd be surprised if the tow hook on your Cayenne was the wrong one.

well i feel stupid, however, it still looked bigger than the hole in the bumper. i will doublecheck when car is done.

doing a laundry list of things while engine is out so shopping for parts
Main attraction is going to be new catless downpipes form HHR both flex pipes are burnt through. won't cost anything extra to install while engine is out, might as well at that point.
Don't worry im keeping the secondaries, i'm not complete *** and do care about environment a little
