Hello guys, I have been living in the USA for quite some time and will come back to Germany in September/October this year. I have been driving a 2006 Carrera S for almost a year and when I bought the car from the Porsche branch I had not thought about tuning parts and Germany. Here in the USA all this is seen relatively loosely (except in California) and therefore there is no documentation for tuning parts – i.e. material reports, parts reports, AB It’s missing. The previous owner has made a few minor modifications to the car. Nothing wild. My car has a carbon diffuser based on GRP (laminated carbon), which is mounted on the standard rear bumper. Furthermore, two highly polished exhaust panels – only the apertures, otherwise nothing has been changed on the exhaust system. Last but least: carbon mirror inserts (same quality as above) Nothing has been cut out or otherwise changed on the carbon parts. the car is completely standard. You can only see the changes if you know a 997 Carrera exactly, because the car itself is basalt black and the carbon adapts quite well to the coloration. The problem is in September then the TÜV. What possibilities do I have? Are there special measures for import vehicles that have installed such parts? Are these parts at all subject to entry requirements(The exhaust panels are not, as far as I know)? I don’t want to make the whole procedure any more cumbersome than it is now. What would you advise me to do? Thank you for your help!! Greetings from America, gdo

Hello dear Porsche community, I’m new here, so I would like to say hello for a moment. My dad bought my mom’s Cayman S Edition 1 2 years ago. That was his first Porsche and he was so excited about it that he now wants to buy the new Cayenne. The debate is now either the Cayenne Diesel or the Cayenne base gasoline with 3.6 liters and 300 hp. I recommended him the Cayenne S with 400 hp, but that’s too much of the good for him. My question would be now whether the new 3.6 liter base petrol is recommended. By this I mean on the one hand whether it is sparkling enough and on the other hand whether fuel consumption and sound are appealing. The old base gasoline at Cayenne I was not so the hit or?! Tend to the diesel at the moment almost more (although Porsche is atypical). I would be grateful if someone could tell me something about it. Vg Dominik

A friendly hello, when I ordered my tires, the seller offered me the free filling with tire gas. I have not decided so far because I wanted to know first what your experiences with the gas are. It should have several advantages, but to be honest, do not believe. But I think it is certainly not bad either? What do you mean? Use it too? And last but not least, is the gas actually light air? Thank you for your Ant Word and your opinions in advance!

Moin moin, now that I have installed the desired wheels, should be retrofitted to complete the sports exhaust system – then it is “finished” and corresponds to my taste Have already asked for “my” PZ, but they do not offer the switch solution, as they have had some of their PZ installed afterwards. By switch solution I mean that one can influence the adjustment of the flaps themselves i.e. either continuous open, continuous closed or the norma with me in the PZ they don’t do it, but it would be technically feasible. My one or other of these switches in the PZ had it installed, if yes, where? Close to Cologne… It would be “a wash off” and probably shouldn’t cost anything extra. Another question: Is the retrofitting carried out in exchange i.e. do you get the “old” pots with you? Thanks in advance.
