Fuel in the charcoal canister and other campaigns on the Cayenne III

Engine / equipment

Porsche Cayenne III (9Y0)

Period mentioned

2017 onwards

Symptoms

Engine misfires or backfires in the intake after refuelling; a leak from a quick connector in the fuel line; a rear centre seat belt that does not restrain properly.

Possible cause described

Documented recalls: on 2018 cars, fuel could reach the charcoal canister through the vent line if the nozzle is inserted at an angle or not fully, creating a flammable mixture in the intake (filler pipe and canister are replaced); a leaking quick connector on the fuel line; the rear centre buckle on cars built from 14/9/2017 to 8/3/2018. The German guide does not yet have reliable fault data for this generation.

Check for the garage

Check the recalls by VIN; insert the nozzle straight and fully when refuelling.
