What are some common problems with the Porsche Cayenne?

I was looking for a used sporty SUV, but I didn’t realize that you could get a luxury one that’s a few years old on the cheap. As such, I’m thinking about getting a used Porsche Cayenne, but I want to make sure that it doesn’t have any significant issues. Are there any common problems with the Porsche Cayenne?

Debuted in 2003, the
Porsche Cayenne
was the German automaker’s first SUV. Despite its branding and prestige, the Cayenne is one of the least reliable cars on the road, earning just 1.5 stars out of five for reliability from RepairPal. Even if you find one on the cheap, make sure to look out for these common problems with the Porsche Cayenne:
  • Premature wearing of brake rotors and brake pads
  • Coolant leaks due to faulty plastic tubing—later models upgraded to aluminum piping to fix this issue
  • Loud shifting due to transmission issues
