  Summary

  Technical Background Front brakes are squealing with light pedal at low speed. The noise is primarily in the 8 kHz range. Service Information Test drive the vehicle and verify the noise with an FFT plot. Low speed, light pedal squeal is most easy to duplicate when the brakes are cooling. Make sure to attach the FFT plot and relevant photographs to the PQIS job as outlined in the brake squeal ATI (Group 4 - 1801).

  Date Added:

  Manufacturer:

  PORSCHE

  Summary

  The "transfer case" is designed as an active all-wheel drive system that is dynamically adapted to the respective driving state. Power transmission between the front and rear axle is controlled electronically via the "all-wheel drive servomotor (transfer case)" and themulti-plate clutches integrated in the transfer case. ? On all-wheel drive vehicles, the drive train can become strained at low speeds and when the steering is turned sharply when "Off-roadmode" is activated, depending on design. ? Under extreme conditions, the drive train can also become strained when "Off-roadmode" is deactivated. ? Customers with little experience with all-wheel drive vehicles can interpret this behavior as a fault, which in turn can result in incorrect diagnoses in the workshop. Remedial action: Customer complaint to be checked: ? Rough-running engine or ? thevehicle vibrates or ? theengine jerks under load/during acceleration.

  Summary

  Subject: Intake valves and intake ports Information: Carboned-up valves in the engine can be reworked and cleaned using cleaning equipment. If there is a complaint about knocking combustion, e.g. during acceleration at high load, the condition of the intake valves and portsmust be checked before doing any other work. If the check shows that the intake valves and intake ports have carbon deposits and are dirty, they must be cleaned using the VAS 294 011 - cleaning unit. There should be no need to replace the components. Date of Introduction: The VAS 294 011 - cleaning unit can be ordered immediately for dealers. Remedial Action: The VAS 294 011 - cleaning unit is used for cleaning carboned-up intake valves and intake ports. Compressed air is used to spray a special granulatemixture into the intake port,where it loosens and removes carbon build-up. The dirty granulate is extracted during spraying using an industrial vacuum cleaner.

  Summary

  Information: This document updates information previously published in EQ 1105, EQ 1105, and EQ 1401. To provide stable voltage and sufficient current throughout certain service operations, you should connect the vehicle to a battery charger (sometimes referred to as a power supply). However, you may experience ECU programming and coding issues if the chosen battery charger has insufficient power. Many workshop manuals currently advise use of a battery charger with a 40 or 70 A current rating. However, with the increasing current requirements of modern Porsche vehicles, we recommend a battery charger capable of producing a minimum current of 90 A.
