I bought another wheel hanger tool like what comes in the jack kit so I'd have one in my toolbox. Makes handling the Cayenne wheels much more manageable.
every winter i put snow tires on my cayenne - still found it a struggle to align the (72 lbs. ) wheel and tire onto the stud. last year i found it easier not using it. just hang the wheel on the small "ledge " of the hub and rotate until the hole is lined up.

Just received my refund on that oil change kit from FCPEuro. Only cost me $15 to ship the old oil back to them via UPS. Don't think you can get cheaper than that on a yearly maintenance. Looking to do the brakes in the winter time. I thought I was going to do the pads only but might as well just get fresh new rotors with this crazy deal.
New drive belt. Original belt looks fine. I'll hold on to it for a while. Fairly simple on the V6, drove a M8 screw into the tensioner to relief tension. Had to remove the splash guard and crawl underneath because it was really hard to get the belt around the crank pulley from above due to the oil pan being in the way.

I'm thinking about using four of them when mounting and dismounting.

I've got oil rotors, pads and TC fluids from FCP as well. Plan is to change TC with every oil change to keep it happy. Nice to know it only cost you $15 to ship that oil back. You're in NJ, right?
On the rotors/pads/sensors I was thinking of getting new ones too. Mine started squealing for some reason. I can't imagine the shipping cost for these crazy heavy rotors though. Might just give them to a buddy to drop them off at FCP, glad they're on the east coast.

(I don't use *that* one for the Cayenne!)
