Nice one Joel. Thanks to your lovely wife too. Volvo estates have a similar set up. If my V70R struts fail, I now have the confidence to tackle the job with my own lovely assistant. Thank you!
Nice job Joel. I didn’t have a lovely assistant and had the power tailgate on my turbo… it’s such an awkward job and easy to see why it’s always an issue on these. Hopefully it gives great info for the many owners with the same issue. Top work. 😊
Looks like a nightmare compared to "ordinary" cars. Thank goodness you knew the new struts just push on with no levering out of the new strut clips like some RU-vid videos show!
Fair play to you replacing those struts. If it were me I would have simply headed to the nearest independent Porsche specialist and handed over my £ 😂 Informative and interesting content as always.
@@Racelinekarting he needs sponsorship from a paint correction instruction and cosmetic care . I was thinking please don’t touch that headlining after pulling out the black water insulation. That stuff will Never come out lol. My OCD can’t take this sort of content 😂
@@Boris-xx7dwha, I’m right with you on that. I was Sat saying ‘don’t do it Joel’ and then he did it. That black stuff will never come off. I like Joel and admire his have a go attitude but that was a little careless. I can’t believe how lovely his misses is. No way mine would have stood there on tip toe trying to hold up a heavy tailgate. Her shoulders must have been killing her. Bless her.
Nice to see more cayenne content Joel 😁 boots stuts didn't seem that complicated apart from the headlining. Thanks to you im currently saving up to buy one of these 3.2 Cayennes. I was tempted to go for the 4.5 S but after everything I've read the 4.5 it's now an unreliable engine. Most owners say this 3.2 V6 lump is the better more reliable one. Im happy with 240bhp, nothing wrong with that in a big old porsche. I was thinking 4.4 L322 V8 like your old one with the M62 bmw engine but the reliability isn't exactly great lets be honest
I seem to recall a parody twitter account that posted something like "Do you feel insecure? Are you worried that people don't know just how much money you really have? Then get yourself a Porsche Cayenne...."
Should have gone with stabillis for both struts OEM make and about £110 for the kit🤔job done, don’t forget the butyl type seal for the strut covers or it’ll piss in 👍
Mine arnt that bad but I would change if it was an easy job… I think taking that liner off would be stressful for me so i’ll just let it develop more before I take it to a garage, who will probably charge me a fortune. 😊
@@keithvers569so after a while, but on day 1 as a new owner, I wouldn't need to replace the struts. Therefore 'every owner' doesn't need to do it. I'd also suggest that genuine Porsche struts are likely to be better quality than the eBay specials that Joel bought.
Agreed. Over engineered rubbish. What's more, you probably won't need to replace struts on a Toyota as often because they make their cars properly in the first place.
