General Information

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2018 Porsche Cayenne, 2017 Porsche Cayenne, 2016 Porsche Cayenne, 2015 Porsche Cayenne, and 2014 Porsche Cayenne. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The air-spring struts are pre-filled to approx. 2.5 bar overpressure ex-works. If a new air-spring strut is installed, air can diffuse (escape) from the bellows of the air-spring strut as a result of storage times of varying duration. If the air-spring strut is removed from the transport packaging and installed without being filled, the bellows can fall into folds, thereby damaging the air-spring strut. For this reason, all air-spring struts must be re-filled prior to use. The procedure is described in detail in the course of the repair instructions.
