Glad to see others are doing this as well! I am curious if you notice a difference in MPG or performance post the cleaning.
I will post up a DIY. I just got it back on the road so it will be a little while before I can report on the mpg change, if any. If I can increase it by one mile per gallon I'd be happy.
From a distributor in Latvia. Wheel is manufactured by a Russian wheel company, with a million wheels on the market and good specs. I can get you a contact if you need, not sure if they ship to US. Happy with the product.
Getting the rig ready for some off-road camping, fishing, and mountain biking adventures...and retirement. Few more items to add but it's all coming together.
twodollardoug,
I look forward to your DYI on this. Did you clean one cylinder at a time and how dirty was the EGR valve? I assume you had to open the cooling system to get the EGR and cooler out of your way. Keep up the good work.
On my 2015 CD, I de-badged the "diesel" and "Cayenne" logos using nylon fishing line, lubricated with "Goo Gone"... then used paste swirl / scratch remover on a microfiber towel to remove the residual dirt shadow. Came out perfect.
I then moved my Valentine One radar detector / blendmount / mirrortap setup from my Jeep Grand Cherokee to the CD... had to use a 1/2" piece of rubber fuel line for the old blendmount to fit properly on the narrower mirror stem of the Porsche, but it worked out great and it is totally hidden. Sure beats buying yet another blendmount.
The DIY guide found on this forum was very helpful.
Haven't installed yet, but finally got my new summer wheels. Replicas, but a good replica. Waiting on TPMS to come in the mail, then the P-Zeros get installed (hopefully this week).
