The fill capacities are in the description. I only have them for the 958.1 if someone has them for the 985.2 let know.

Just bought 2013 Cayenne 4.2D. Loving and learning from the videos, thanks.

Thanks for the video, getting ready for my 160k miles service and this helps alot

Awesome video! I was looking for this instructions for a long time!! Thank you Kevin! Great job!

Thanks for the video. I have a 958 and a 991.1. I used your video to do the transfer case service two weeks ago, much appreciated. Now I can tackle this one as well in a couple weeks. Just have to find those bits!!!

Kevin, this was a very helpful video. Thank you for posting it.

Thank you Kevin. Next on the list. Much appreciated.

Great vid.And thanks for the specs its versy usefull!i just bought a 2012. hybrid and your videos are makeing me confidence to do it myself the change.

Don't remove the fluid until you have verified you could get the fill off.

Just finished front & rear diff. On rear diff, your 5/16 hex bolt socket with a crescent wrench works great on the fill plug. On front diff, I had to use a 5/16 hex Allen wrench and it was a pain in the ass to get it off. Just getting the fill plug back in it’s threads took me a good half hour of fiddling and cursing. Glad I don’t need to do this very often.

Very helpful. Thank you for posting.

My mechanic replaced front differential oil for me, the old one was solid black. He put more new liquid than what he took out. My steering wheel felt so much smoother and softer afterwards, like day n night.

Excellent kev

Thx for the informative videos!

First thing- thanks for these great video's they are extremely helpful. I do have a question I have watched several videos on changing the front and rear diff fluids and on pretty much every other video they fill the Diffs until fluid pours out the fill port

thank your video is very good to learn & save money

Hi Kevin, I just came across your videos on the Cayenne. I bought a used '16 base model with the 3.6 NA engine. I love it and will be keeping it for awhile. This video was a perfect primer for me to do this job. I just did this same drain/fill on my Tundra's differentials and with the exception of the tight access, which you showed how to address that, looks to be a similar job. I see you have a little of the rustbelt orange on your car frame. I live in Wisconsin so was quick to pick up on the flaking rust on the weld seams in your video. Any repair that you recommend for keeping these cars from rusting. Maybe Fluid Film or POR-15?

Kevin you need to get some rust inhibitor under that car. In Canada I use rust check or crown rust inhibitor and I'm still rust free after 485k. The brine there using now destroys sub frames and brake lines.

Thanks Kevin! Another great Cayenne video.. can you do spark plugs next? :D

Thanks for the video Kevin. Ive checked a few online guides and they all claim that the open rear diff takes 0.8L. What amount should I put in the rear?

Is the viscosity for the rear locking diff option still 75W90 or is it different? Wasn't sure if it was the same as the front diff.

Hello, greetings, I am from Mexico City, I would like to ask you some questions, mine is a Porsche Cayenne base 2012 3.6 v6 gasoline, the rear differential has 75w90 as it says in the video, in the front what it dyes is another differential and apart from the transfer or the front differential is it the transfer? and what would be the fluid that would be in the front parts Thks

hi kevin i have a 2011 cayenne diesel on 165000 miles and on 4 occasions in the last 6 months its auto transmition has stuck in 3rd gear untill i turn off the engine then restart and the problem goes away,question is do you think this type of oil change will help at all or is it wishfull thinking on my part thanks in advance

Hello sir. My car is 2011 Porsche Cayenne S HYbrid 333cv, the oil is 75w90? and 0.8 front diff and 0.8 front diff? Because when i ordered they asked me if i had a locking slipp differential? does that change the type of oil and quantity? and how can i know ?

Trying to figure out what fluid to use for the hybrid model (958.2)...

Did you add 1 quart or 1 liter on the rear? I’m curious because one bottle is less than a litter. I’d assume it’s a minimal difference and doesn’t matter. Thanks

Where did you got the specification for the fluid amount? I own a 2016 Cayenne GTS and trying to find the correct info on the exact amount I need to fill the diffs.

Thanks for yet another good video! Do you plan to change the water pump on the 996 and film it? Cheers.

Kevin, how did you get the cap off the Ravenol bottle so you could use your own fill pump? As best I can tell, the caps are not designed to come off (as it has its own built-in tube).

Hi Kevin I am hearing that he rear diff can be Limited Slip type oil?? I want to change the diff oil but dont know how to check to use the right type of oil for the rear diff.

Are these plugs re-usable? Is there a spacer/gasket that has to be replaced? I thought the plugs are single use only and should be replaced each time?

Is this Fluid GL4 or GL5 ?

Kevin - Where did you get the fluid pump? Thanks!!!

Hello Kevin . Great video . I wanted to ask my 2011 Cayenne started to make growling noise and i took it my mechanic and he suspected it to be transfer case . I didn’t get any jerks or slippage while changing gears . Spoke to Porsche NA and they agreed to replace the TC under warranty . However I took my suv to the dealership for the repair and as per the technician noise to be coming from the front differential as well and they want to replace front differential which is obviously not covered and I have to spend 6000$ from my pocket and then they will diagnose based on the noise if needed then they will replace TC . I’m not sure if they are taking my advantage or is it really an issue ? Also do you think changing fluids on differentials and TC is the step in the right direction ? Thanks

What is that adapter piece that is quickly referenced when removing the pain in the dick fill bolt on the front differential? The rear was a pain, but more access than the front. FML

Porsche recommends changing differential fluids, and transmission fluid every 160k miles. Do you have 160k miles ? or why did you change the fluids sooner? Thanks

On rennlist forum, people are saying the capacity is fill to overflow for the open diff. I also called several local Porsche dealers. Some say it’s fill to overflow. Some say they don’t know. Just wondering how did you get the capacity information? Did you measure how much fluid came out from the rear? Did you have any problem with the rear diff after the fluid change?

👍🙏

You removed the drain plug first then the fill plug?

Is this the same for a 14 cayenne 3.6 engine awd ?

how many litter most be put insides

Where can I get this adapter from ? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pMeEiqd-xqyqnac.html

Why not Liqui-Moly?

There's a lot more rust then on the Cayenne's 955.
