I'm looking at a '14 Panamera, 3.0L V-6. Seems like a lot of trouble just to replace the air filter. Porsche doesn't do anything simple. Or do anything to cut down on dealership tech shop hours.
Were you disappointed when you saw that the filter wasn’t even as dirty as you thought or is I thought it would’ve been to go through all that change it. thanks for the share, though. I will check to see how much Barber Shop would charge to do that first before going to the shop.
Yes, There are some clips on both sides that snap in and I was worried that I would break them if I pulled too hard. Probably about 1 1/2 - 2 hours start to finish. I also removed one of the marker light bulbs on the driver's side so that i could get enough slack to lay the bumper cover on the floor.
Thanks for this. It looks tedious, but not something overly difficult. Plus saving about $400 instead of using dealer

Think it is 40000 miles or 4 years. I think I got a Mahle filer for about $65.
Buy a 1995 Tacoma then
Great tutorial, but this must be the dumbest location of an air fillter ever!

That is one of the most unnecessary things I have seen Porsche should be ashamed of
How often you need to replace the filter?

What the heck!!
This design is very entertaining, but stupid.
Why don't you show how you broke off the bumper retaining end clips off both sides !?
Thank you 🙏🏾
This is crazy
Lord have mercy 💀💀💀💀
Was there a snag on the passenger side of the bumper? Also, what was the amount of time DIY? Thanks👍
