The replacement steering oil cooler did the trick along with band clamps instead of the stock spring clamps. No more leak. Replacing the cooler will require front bumper removal which is tedious, but not terribly difficult.
OK then, I'm putting that on my list. While I'm in there, I'm going to replace my pitiful one tone horn with a fiat air horn. Too bad I can't get the one that's on my 911, it's great.
The green line is a factory mark to push the hose too. Nothing more. I wouldn't say this is common. I have never seen this in all the Cayenne's I have worked on.
Forgive the possibly foolish question...I discovered the same leak today. Have had the GTS up and down on the lift adjusting the Airmatic Lowering links, attempting to match the ride height L&R.
Anyway, that is Pentosin leaking correct? Same circuit/reservoir possibly as the clutch? The owners manual doesn’t really give me any detail...
My pedal gets intermittently weird at times, friction point too near the floor.
[QUOTE=sprfrkr;15781437]Clamp in place. Definitely exerts more force than the pinch clamp (without over tightening). The green residue on this line seems to indicate someone was in here before trying to address this as the line above it doesn’t have this. I could be wrong. Fingers crossed. I’ll test drive tomorrow and post results.
I’m sorry that I can’t say for sure. I was nearly sure it was the line leaking, but after drying it off and turning it back on and turning the wheel, I saw the leak was the oil cooler itself, but it was very hard to tell. Sorry that is not much help.

No problem, don't think it's my cooler as it's dry. I'll dig deeper over the weekend.
