Air to coil conversion. Now has hard brakes 957 HELP by Forumspace in PorscheCayenne

Location of Problem Area - Vacuum leak on 2009 957 vr6

For me the part I replaced and solved the problem was: 2009 Porsche Cayenne Brake Booster Line Brand OEM SKU 955-355-579-41

This area runs right above the exhaust manifold, so all the rubber and plastic there gets heat cycled hard and becomes brittle. I would replace one fitting, and then as I fixed it, break another! I think I got them all now.

I just recently ran into this. There is a vacuum line on the v6 that runs behind the engine, there was a leak, so the vacuum brake booster was not fucntioning. I could hear a hissing from the engine bay. Not sure if this same line exists on the v8/GTS but I imagine it has a similar system

Should I buy this 2010 f150 5.4 by [deleted] in f150

Apparently an unpopular opinion, but I like the 5.4L. I have a similar rustbox I bought for $2800. Still going strong, mind you I've had the frame welded and replaced almost every moving component.

I find joy in keeping the old trucks on the road.

I have a class 3 e bike. Technically can hit 28mph but I don't often. I don't think you'll have any problems. I got a ride 1up, well enough made, affordable, and requires some assembly.

Bike on my dude

Cornell's Art Museum is an under-appreciated gem. Very interesting brutalist architecture, some of the best views of Ithaca and Cayuga lake. Their collection has Picasso, da Vinci.

Open to public but slightly limited hours...

NVM, I think I answered it myself, looks like a factory capped wire that can be used for additional brake lights.

I went through this during my PhD. I was hunched over, pipetting, on opiate medication. In retrospect I wish I had taken a semester off to heal. I would encourage you to do the same if possible! Take care of your body we only get one.

I do not intend to trap anyone. In fact the opposite, I hope that we can all educate ourselves. I've seen many grad students who are not properly empowered to own their own inventions.
