WOW, my Porsche dealer hooked me up with a Cayenne S during my cars re-alignment. They said I'd most likely get a Cayenne or sometimes an Audi for service calls. SWEET!

I had exactly the same problem with my 06 C2S at exactly the same time as yours. Since there really is no problem wih the engine, my dealer said it was fine for me to drive my car while we waited for the replacement sensor to arrive. It took about an hour to switch out the new replacement sensor.
Apparently this sensor monitors the pressure in the gas tank & gas line system.
Anyways, I don't see why the dealer has to keep your car for a trivial matter.
