Hi everyone! I'm just here to introduce myself, so please be gentle.
I'm a new owner of a 06 Cayenne S Ti Edition...well my wife is going to be the driver, I just get to pay for it and do the maintenance.

Iceland Silver on Black/Steel interior.

Hopefully I got a decent deal on this vehicle.
$33k with 34k miles.
Non CPO, but it still has coverage until the end of the year.
Anything outside of the obvious that I should be looking out for to have taken care of during the remaining warranty period?
I'm already a little nervous about doing the 40k service myself...

I look forward to frequenting Rennlist in the near future.

 

Welcome

Since you're somewhat close to being nekkid, I'm gonna pull out my popcorn now

 

How'd you know I'm nearly nekkid? Did I forget to turn off my webcam?

Well I'm hoping I made the right decision on getting the Cayenne instead of a Range Rover.
The wife wanted the Range, but with all the horror stories surrounding the air suspension I didn't want the vehicle to be out of commission for weeks at a time.

Hopefully someone can give me the warm and fuzzies about my choice of going with the Cayenne.

 

Welcome.
The current water temperature is 74deg F

 

There are rocks right under the waves aren't there?

 

No, not rocks, cracked coils

BTW, that isn't water that the Cayenne owner is diving into...it's actually collected coolant that leaked once the plastic coolant tubes cracked.

P.S. It is forum tradition for new members to post a pic or two of the new vehicle.

P.S. It is also customary to leave your suicide note under the DRIVER's seat; that way when the next owner has to replace the battery, he/she will find it and have something to read while they work.

 

And the owner (diver) in the picture is wearing swim trunks (aka warranty)....imagine if he were "nekkid"...

Hope you enjoy your new Cayenne.

 

Being naked isn't so bad once you get used to it...

 

So you're saying that most Cayenne owners end up being naturists? Sounds like my kinda party.

 

I think that was Larry when he was working as a cabana boy at one of the beach resorts in Acapulco.

 

Welcome aboard TMac.

Don't take these guys too seriously otherwise you'll find yourself hating your Cayenne even before taking delivery of it!

 

Yea its a Killer car man Congrats!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yes.
Larry died soon after this picture was taken ... and shortly thereafter I was living with his widow.

Funny how things just seem to work out for the best.

 

It's all good with me. Just fun and games on the interweb.

I am very much enjoying the Cayenne. In fact the wife is enjoying the Cayenne more than I!!
The wife was already christened him Sgt Pepper. (She's a massive Beatles fan.)

No leaks in the garage yet, so I'm hoping those coolant pipes hold up.
Shifting is smooth too, not seeing some of the shift hesitancy that I have heard about. Even at full bore above legal speeds.

Pictures will be coming shortly.

 

NIN's "March of the P!GS" is the official Cayenne song
