Kind of thinking about getting rid of my 07 suburban as my DD with 190k on it i am starting to notice some wear. I was looking the other day at used suvs as i never buy new and noticed how cheap these are for as new as they are a 2011S can be had for about 13k with about 80k on them.

Any feedback?

Ben,

You should go to 6speedonline & read the Cam Adjuster Bolt Failure & Transfer Case Failure topics under Cayenne 958 Forum (2011-17), although the V8 on ly runs through 2014 MY.

958 Forum -

If you like black paint CayS's - & don't need a back-up camera &/or hitch - then you're good to go to find them, but much harder if you want any other color &/or options, as I have found now looking for 16 months! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

However, if you want a more bulletproof & cheaper/easier to maintain SUV for the longer term, then go with a Toyota Sequoyah or 4Runner!

PS - the above recco is from my Austrian born Porsche Tech of 42+ years, due to more labor & higher Porsche parts costs - so the CayS purchase price may be reasonable, but any repairs/maintenance will be typical Porsche prices & easily twice to do the same on the Toyotas. Unfortunately we have space limitations & a wife who won't drive a full size Pick-up/SUV, so a Sequoyah won't work as our "extra car" & tow vehicle as well as the mid-sized CayS SUV, & the CayS rides much nicer.

Good Luck!
Tom
