@twodollardoug Interesting, Steinway's black, after aluminum, and "wood", (btw, which one ?)

I'm going to be be back on your root, with change #1 : wood !! (OEM was aluminum).
And, going for olive oil !
(Being lazy, the changes is done by a Porsche approved body shop.)

I noticed that you did not changed the gear trim that seems to be still aluminum, any reason (s) ?

Another question, where did you put your "past trims" on market ?

twodollardoug

I started with natural olive trim and traded it for the aluminum. It's one of the first things I did. Wood is not really my thing in a car. I will probably put the aluminum trim set on ebay.

I don't think the have a piano black shift **** in Espresso. But I would definitely be interested if you have a source.

Liqui-moly oil change + Ravenol transfer case oil (always do them together). GTS now has 74k miles and also tackled the more laborious transmission fluid+filter change. Also removed the ATF hoses to purge additional fluid-definitely worth the extra trouble. Total amount replaced 10L. The fluid looked in amazingly good shape - I'm assuming it was still original. filter appeared very clean too.

@twodollardoug if you don't mind having the metal plate on your phone / phone case, the rennline design is hands down the best phone holder on the market. I have them in 3 of my cars

And how could i forget-New interstate AGM battery from Costco. that was almost a 2 hr job. ridiculous. Almost worth the $tealer charging what they do.

Install a sport steering wheel today. So good

Any tips on doing the transmission oil change? I need to face up to that next year. What ATF did you use? I have an H9 AGM battery on order from Auto Zone.

I'd have to agree! Did your old wheel have the buttons/***** for controlling the PCM and dash display? I know on other models there is a separate steering column stalk that is used for those functions when the no-buttons sport wheel is used.

MMMmmmm.... this thread isn't really for detailed tech discussions - I'd suggest you make a posting in the normal Cayenne forum for these sort of questions. And as far as the transmission you may want to go look at the Cayenne DIY subforum.

What did you have before? Was it heated?

Super easy to change do using the WM use the kit below. My replacement transmission was $11,000.00 failed at 121K well short of the 160,000 mile service interval.

Interesting. I have never seen a wheel like that. So you do have the multi function stalk.

Radi

Have this one before. No buttons only heating. The new one have not heating. Replace it with 15min. no need to reconnect the battery.
