Tracy - the Cayenne is the V6? I checked the manual because I knew the V8 one can be easily accessed under the intake plenum, and there it was - for the V6, R&R of the automatic is called for..
Certainly, a new water pump and thermostat would be a good thing. You might ask him about refreshing your transmission fluid.. with the entire unit out of the car it's probably possible to do a very complete change by disconnecting the torque converter and draining it.

Thanks for the reply and I thought the water pump would be a good call, she has 138000 miles on he and as far as I know the water pump has never been done. I have owned it since I think 360000 miles I will ask about the trans fluid as well.
