I have been getting a very intermittent Porsche fault code 174 - camshaft adjustment bank 1. Reading the forums it looks like this is one of the more expensive issues could be lurking. Before I start down that road, I wanted some thoughts on what I have been seeing in my data logs. (Durametric)
On the second round the bank 1 head was replaced with a new OEM assembly with the complete gasket set, head gaskets again, all radiators, most of the remaining cooling hoses, oil pressure sender and a million other small gaskets, o-rings, etc.
I am at just over 192K km and Bank 1 is now seeing this intermittent camshaft adjustment bank 1 code. On the first instance the car was running rough (lumpy idle). With the second two occurrences it has popped up with no noticeable indications aside from the CEL.
Hi,
maybe a loose chain adjuster?
Got that problem on my cayenne ( wich is of course a total different model and engine, but an engine is an engine is an engine...). Did change the whole chain system at 100k and it runs perfect for about 50k. Then the hydraulic valve lifter fails with the same problems: Bad start and rough idle. So maybe one of that two opportunities maybe the reason...

P1531 is the DTC for the actuator triggering, but no active position. Could be either a wiring issue (open circuit) or a bad actuator. Diagnostics are to check the power supply (B+) and triggering wire for continuity; if both are OK, replace the actuator. As noted above, it probably is the the actuator.
Sooner or later it is going to fail completely, which will impact how the engine runs as well as throwing more codes. As Porsche does not sell the seal separately, you only option is to replace the unit. As for the part number, it would be best to have a dealer run your VIN number to make sure you get the correct number.
Something is wrong here, the 174 fault has two possible causes, DTC P1531 or P1530, and the OBD II manual for your car does.not list a P1341 code, meaning that the DME cannot throw that code. Please reconfirm the DTC code.
I searched online and did find someone else having the same issue, (green rubber in the filter, same P1341 code in a 3.4 996). They pulled the cam cover, looked at the actuator and sure enough, it was the o-ring coming apart.
Whether you are looking for the color of your Porsche Macan because you are curious or because you need to touch up a spot on your vehicle, you are wondering, where is the paint code on a Porsche Macan? You have come to the right place to find out! We explore a couple of different places the code might be.
At Porsche Delaware, we would be more than happy to help you find the paint code. In addition, if you need some work done on your vehicle, we have a team of certified technicians that only use OEM parts to get your Porsche vehicle working like new. Please give us a call today with any questions that you have as well as to schedule an appointment. We look forward to hearing from you!
So, for reading and clearing all codes on Porsche's, what's the best code reader out there? You can get the Durametric tool from Pelican etc. for about $300, but that's just the cable and software to run on your PC. There are 'durametric' readers on Amazon from just over $100, but do they do everything that the 'real' tool can? IS there a standard go too tool that people use?
Note. For non Porsche people, no a regular OBDII tool wont work, that's really just for the emissions stuf. I need to read and clear codes on my air bag system, and I'm still chasing what appears to be an issue with the trans temp sensor and immobilizer stopping the car starting unless theirs something, anything, plugged into the OBDII sensor.
I bought the "Durametric-style" tool and it flat out wouldn't interface with my 911. Wasted $60 or 70 as I recall. In my case I forgot to disconnect the battery before I removed the door airbag to replace the window regulator. I tried to not shell out the cash for a Durametric, but did because all sources pointed to it being the right tool to clear that code. After I bought it, I found it very useful for code purposes, but also as a health monitoring tool for things like cam deviation. I don't think the 3-VIN version can do immobilizer/key stuff, though my only attempt was related to diagnosing my keyfob. I had a good pill in the one key I had so I never had immobilizer specific issues with my car.
Jeff (Gearheadotaku) brought one of those over a few weeks ago, and it couldn't read anything wrong, but after clearing codes with it, the car started, ran for about a second then stopped. That's when we tried plugging in a dead OBDII Dongle and discovered that as long as something is plugged in, the car will start and run just fine, other than the temp sensor issue.
I guess that I need the real deal. Does the $300 cable/software kit limit you to three VINs? What's the cost for unlimited VINs vs thee VINs? Does the cable software limit the number of computers it can be installed on?
This is very timely, as I've been thinking about about getting the Durametric tool, mainly to reset the service reminder. I don't really see myself using it for anything else, but that reminder is super annoying when I start the car.
The $300 Enthusiast Durametric does limit you to three VINs and will work with those three cars only. You occasionally see cheaper second hand units on Pelican claiming one or two slots remaining, but you can't tell how many slots have been used visually. That's why I bought new. As far as I know, the computer(s) used is irrelevant. The Pro version costs more, but has no VIN limitation. It may have additional functionality in the software as well though.
But is says "With the Schwaben Pro Scan Tool you have full access to all of the OBD-II controlled systems on your Porsche vehicles. Diagnose and reset your check engine light, pull codes, stream live data from the OBD, and also perform some advanced functions such as actuation, adaptation and programming (check full list of available functions in link below)."
Then there's 'Porsche Durametric Diagnostic Tool for Porsche with OBDII port, up to MY 2015, Enthusiast Package, Option 1 (up to 3 VIN numbers)' which is the one I think I want. Limited to three vins, but covers cars from 1996-2015, there are also version for pre 96 cars, post 2015 cars (I think) and 'Professional' version with unlimited VIN's, but in those there's option 1 and option 2, I'm not sure what they are. I don't mind springing $280 for the enthusiast package, option 1, but I want to be sure it can do everything I need it too before buying. That's why I'm hoping for AASCD to chime in.
Thanks. I've been thinking about one for a long time, but I've yet to pull the trigger. The three VIN thing annoys me, but realistically, I'll probably never see that fourth modern Porsche from this point forward.
Just changed the oil in my wife's Cayenne Diesel. Reset the oil light and intermediate service light with my iCarSoft Por ii. Thing works great, but I'm not sure if it'll retract the rear brake caliper pistons and I know it can't reset airbag lights like the Foxwell tool can.
Is your Porsche check engine light on? When your Porsche has a problem, its On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) system will trigger a code so a technician can better identify the issue. If you have access to an OBD-II scanner, feel free to search our database so you can get a better idea what might be wrong with your vehicle.
If your search is coming up blank, it's likely your code is less common and should be checked out by one of our service technicians. Codes starting with "P1" are Porsche-specific, and should also be diagnosed by one of our certified Porsche specialists. Our team has access to the latest and most advanced Porsche diagnostic equipment, ensuring your vehicle is repaired accurately and to the latest Porsche standards.

Porsche Labels are difficult to find. Check around your spare tire for a large white paper label. Porsche can hide this label in odd places and it is inconsistent. Also look in your car manual. There is a duplicate of that same sticker there, although I am uncertain if Porsche did that for all of their cars, or only for a few select years. The paint code is either four digits long and starts with an "L" or it is three digits long. It will contain letters and or numbers.
