Hi guys. I'm considering buying a 2004 Cayenne S with some transmission issues. It runs well aside from the intermittent tranny issues (ie. gear jerking). The seller wants $3k. It has 250kms. The interior is mint. So, my question is should I buy it and replace the transmission?
Thanks mtnrat. My buddy has a hoist and (some) tools. We usually do try to delve into some of the more particular/intermediate type of Germanic car repairs. Replacing the valve body would make for a good weekend endeavour.
This is all fine if the problem is the valve body. The transmission may need a full rebuild. These things are notorious. I know this from experience. Budget for much more....
