Wow! Fantastic Video! My best buddy bought a 2012 for his daughter and I'm a huge fan of replacing the fuel filter (if applicable) because everyone forgets about them because they're usually hidden. Great Video!

Jeffery Kaighin I agree it’s always over looked. Thank you for watching!

[@marmurm]

What was the reason to remove the flange on the right side as well? Is that necessary for the filter replacement?

[@yueibm]

Thank you! I'm hoping my 2011 Cayenne also has an access cover - one of the senders is failing, like a lot of them are starting to with age (not very good longevity). I've had a few cars where there is no access and the rear suspension / exhaust / driveline need to be removed to drop the fuel tank, but seeing this 7P generation having an access cover, I'm hopeful that Porsche's design also provides access.

Nice work,what mileage is the recommended to be done or only if leaking. I have a 2011 Cayenne Turbo looks the same less the flip up seats.

[@HowtoAutomotive]

Jay Persaud as far as I know there is no mileage recommendation. You may check with your dealer to see if there is Updated part.

[@oscarpeddiford7168]

Is the filter submerged? Just wondering, as when you pulled the part much gas was underneath. thanks.

So I did exactly what you did. Started it up ran for about a good min then dies. Crank no start. Recheck hose became loose so fixed it but still crank no start. Battery is super low now. Please help!

DriveShaft Drew Thank you Drew!

There is pressure in that gas line you fail to tell the people about this in how long the car should be off or settled to begin the repair
