2011 Cayenne S Voluntary Service Actions
 

I just had the car serviced and noticed the following on my invoice. Can anyone translate this to help me understand what was exactly achieved?

WA52 - Re-coding rear end electronics control unit
WA60 - Re-coding airbag control unit
WA68 - Re-programming the gateway control unit
WA69 - Re-programming the air conditioning system

All done under warranty, and the oil change cost $315. Thanks in advance.

GATEWAY CONTROL UNIT:

5 Gateway control unit
5.1 Replacing gateway control unit
If the gateway control unit needs to be replaced, read out the data from the old control unit before installing the new control unit, see → 903519 Removing and installing gateway control unit.
If the data from the old control unit cannot be read out: → 5.2.
5.2 Entering data manually in the gateway control unit
If the data from the old control unit cannot be read out using PIWIS Tester II:
Select ⇒ 'PPN' and then ⇒ 'Vehicle information' to enter the data manually from the 'PIWIS information system' into the control unit using the vehicle identification number. Then check that I-no. S35 is listed in the vehicle data.
If I-no. S35 is not listed in the vehicle data:
Read off the engine number from the engine in the vehicle and compare it with the numbers specified under “Date of Introduction”. If the engine number is the same or higher, I-no. S35 must be entered in the gateway control unit.
Reason:
A newer engine (as of week 45) may have been installed and I-no. S35 might not have been entered in the vehicle data.


A/C / DME AND ABS reprogramming have too much data to post but the reprogramming maybe due to:


- Engine (replacement or reconditioned)
- Engine oil level sensor
- Engine oil return unit (for oil level sensor)
- Brake vacuum sensor
- DME control unit
- Brake vacuum sensor no longer used
- Updated DME data record
- New DME



alternatively I can post a pic inspired by our very dear and much-missed John Doe :

911slow, I'm not sure I understand how that pic related to the OP's question, nevertheless I enjoyed it very much. :thumbup:

Mike the "Acapulco cliff dive" pic was unavailable. ;)

Can the service be done while you wait or would you have to leave it there overnight?

No need to leave overnight

Sometimes after leaving the dealer, an owner doesn't even have the time to change into appropriate attire

Thanks for spamming my post with annoying pictures. To those who care about the updates and have made it to the bottom of this post, my AC is working much better and the transmission shifts are a lot smoother. The rest of you can jump off a cliff.

Don't take life (or posts) so seriously.
You won't get out of it alive. :surr:
Nice cliff pics.

Taking software updates a bit too seriously...especially given how many there are on these vehicles and how minor they are.

I am curious about WA60 however...would you be so kind as to test the new airbag software update and report back?

Stop hijacking this thread with technical questions.

Can SLOW and Lewis please resubmit those pics in a larger format?

I'm only mildly SLOW, but definitely not Lewis, but since you've requested :evilgrin:

I am very sorry, as I was the first one to post a cliff pic in this thread.

Should have stayed with the TIs..


So here you go: :cheers:

Only mildly SLOW? You're on your second P!g, shortbus.
