Why is my Porsche Cayenne making engine noise?

Strange under-the-hood noises can point to problems within your Porsche Cayenne engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you need an oil change.

Squealing may be caused by a loose fan belt, and grinding could be a sign that something is wrong with your brakes — not the engine.

Can I add water to my Porsche Cayenne radiator?

While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your Cayenne radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.

Reasons your Cayenne car engine may suddenly stop include engine overheating, electrical troubles, mechanical issues, ignition system problems, faulty sensors, and low fuel.
