Default 2008 Cayenne GTS second oil drain plug
Help!!
Per my online research all 2003-2008 Porsche cayenne V8s have two drain plugs with the exception of 2008 turbo.
I wonder two drain plugs are only for 2003-2007 and 2008-2010 have only one?
I have a 2008 GTS but I do not have the second oil drain plug. I looked at a PET diagram which lists followings:


PET: 9PA108 Model life 2007>>2010
#3: WHT 000 206 A - Drain plug M 10 X 9
#10: N 911 014 01 - Drain plug with Captive washer M 14 X 1,5 X 22
Please advise, thank you in advanced all!!!

There is only one oil drain plug on the NA 4.8 and twin turbo engines.

Cheers,

Really? My understanding was there were 2 drain plugs, too! I am about to tackle my diy oil change within the next month.

Like Tom said, just one drain plug for the 4.8 engine.

This is a common misunderstanding, perpetuated by an error in some early editions of the factory service manual. It is also doesn't help that our friends at Pelican Parts still haven't updated their Cayenne oil change DIY, despite being told that there is an error...
