Engine mounts are so worth while. One of the few projects I took to the shop but it was worth every penny. Car feels brand new

I had 125,000kms on the old mounts. They looked fine on the outside but they definitely failed.

Drove my new (to me) 2016 Turbo S 2,306 miles straight through from Phoenix AZ to Harbor Springs Michigan. Averaged 72 mph including stops for gas, a little exercise, food and water in/out!

What a delicious machine! Even at speed and 108 degree temps with the AC and Burmester surrounding me in luxury, engine temp held 200 degrees with absolute ease. Fantastic car!



Now has 30,700 miles and It will be a garage queen as I have three other Cayennes...

If only the extra 971 buttons did something.

Oh, pulled the remote start system, and Mr. 12 volt, replaced the side mirror I'd mounted a camera to. Still beat to death diesel 958
