Porsche Cayenne Maintenance Schedule | 03 – 10

orsche Cayenne 955 maintenance or service schedule intervals with details of the time and mileage intervals or maintenance items to replace. We include the original Porsche maintenance schedule documents and some additional recommended maintenance intervals for your Porsche Cayenne 955.Time or Mileage Based Service Intervals and Maintenance Schedules for Porsche Cayenne | 955 – 957

Porsche Cayenne | V6 / V8 / Turbo | 2003 – 2010 | 955 – 957

Your Porsche Cayenne probably doesn’t fit neatly into one of the planned mileage maintenance intervals by now. Typically, time has now exceeded mileage and therefore it’s important to understand what maintenance items should be addressed on the Porsche Cayenne at specific time intervals. Our recommendation is that maintenance on a 955 or 957 Cayenne, those produced between 2003 and 2010, is now determined by physical inspection and elapsed time, with mileage playing a secondary role.

For this type of inspection based maintenance on your Porsche Cayenne, you’ll need the experience and knowledge-based recommendations from a shop with specific Porsche expertise.

Porsche Cayenne Recommended Maintenance Intervals

To keep your Cayenne healthy, we recommend you inspect the car and change the engine oil and filter annually or every 10K miles. The original Cayenne maintenance schedule called for a minor service at 20K or two years and a major service at 4 year or 40K mile intervals. Additional maintenance items are also required at the six year and 16 year interval, as shown below. The original schedule called for air filter replacement every 80K miles – we recommend you shorten this interval significantly.

Many people become confused by maintenance schedules. The intervals and maintenance items are cumulative –  so for clarity, a 4 year service includes all the maintenance items recommended at the 4 year interval, plus all maintenance items from the 2 year and annual maintenance interval as well.

Safety and Maintenance Inspection

Every annual service should include a rigorous safety and maintenance inspection. It’s essential this is carried out by a skilled technician who knows the likely wear characteristics of your Porsche and can identify issues of concern at an early stage. An inspection should identify those maintenance items that have been influenced by local environmental or road conditions.

Some maintenance items are described as “lifetime,” such as coolant, for example. It’s important during the inspection to discover the health of these “lifetime” items. If you need cold weather protection from your coolant, you’ll find the “lifetime” is considerably shorter than you might expect! Identifying mechanical problems at an early stage allows planning and budgeting for the necessary work.
