Any thought on the cost to do front and back on a 2022 cayenne s?

 

Posted in this section. From memory approx $2k per axle for non-carbon and non-PSCB iow standard brakes.

 

You mean dealer cost? What @chassis said. DIY might be 1/4th depending on what pads/rotors you buy and if you are replacign rotors with pads too. And if you are buying genuine porsche (original pads or ceramic etc).

 

Roughly $1200 in parts for a Base or S with standard brakes. I bought the parts earlier this year for a little less but have not yet installed them. I will DIY, but would estimate that much again in labor from an independent shop. Probably 50% more parts and labor from a dealer.

 

Can you link what you bought?

 

I bought from different places and it was in April. Not sure about prices and availability today. Can’t help with links but you can chase down parts and post an updated list of what you find. I think my total cost was about $1100.

2 front Porsche rotors from Atlanta Perimeter Porsche for about $250 each shipped. I tried FCP first, but they were temporarily out of stock. FCP sells both Porsche stamped and SHW rotors. SHW makes the rotors for Porsche. Usually it is cheaper to buy from the OEM rather than the car maker stamped version, but in this case the prices were actually within $10 shipped.

Zimmerman rear rotors for about $115 each shipped from FCP.

I forget where I bought the pad sensors, but they were aftermarket. Common 2 wire part that is just a ground loop so aftermarket should be fine.

Pads are Textar front and Pagid rear. Textar and Pagid are owned by TMD and Pagid is OEM so I am comfortable with this choice and the total cost was a couple of hundred less. Porsche branded pads are expensive.

I did not buy new caliper bolts. I know the guys who treat the Porsche instructions like a bible will recommend adding those and also tell you to buy the caliper hanging tool for the fronts. I’ll let you chase those parts. They are easy to find.

For brake fluid, I bought Fuchs Titan from FCP. I think ATE 200 would be another good and inexpensive choice.

 

@pbon You spent $1200 on parts for all four corners, correct?

I spent ~$500 for OEM front pads and sensors. Have not changed brakes, front or back yet. There is still life left on both axles.

I have almost 50k miles on the brakes of both axles. I bought the car with 24,500 miles CPO and it had fresh brakes and tires when I took delivery.

 

I spent about $1100 on front and rear rotors and pads and sensors, but shopped carefully, did not use all Porsche branded parts and some parts were aftermarket rather than OEM or OE, and did not buy caliper bolts.

My 21 Cayenne S is at 50k miles. The rotors are smooth and I could continue using them, but the fronts are just under the thickness limit and the rears almost there. The rotors and pads are original. I might get 50k again out of just new pads but not the rotors and I’d rather pay more now to change rotors than do the job again in a year or two and maybe buy pads again so that both rotors and pads are new then.

Wear depends on usage and driving style, so experiences will vary. My car sees mostly highway and secondary road and no big city traffic, which is also why my MPG over 50k miles is 21.0 on the car computer.
