I have a 2013 Cayanne this really has been the best car I’ve ever owned (brakes, oil, and tires) until the recall repairs started. Now I’ve got CEL off and on. Mostly on now. I drove my warranty out in 2 years and I haven’t had the EGR valve recall work done yet and it sounds like it won’t help. I’m really interested in the emissions delete process. Where can I find more info?

The car is going back to the Porsche dealer again tomorrow. Stay tuned re. saga!
While it appears removing the diesel emissions systems and replacing with a bolt on bypass solves the CEL problem with power and fuel economy benefits, what are we to do if the car is still under warranty?
Does anyone know if there is a dealer fix that does not include bypassing the OEM emissions systems? Frustrated inquiring minds want to know!
