Porsche Cayman GT4 Battery Replacement

At Meta Mechanics, we excel in servicing luxury and high-performance vehicles. Recently, we had the privilege of replacing the battery in a Porsche Cayman GT4 at our Dubai workshop. During the replacement process, we identified several critical issues that could have impacted the vehicle’s performance and addressed them with precision. Here’s a summary of the findings and solutions. Porsche Cayman GT4 Battery Replacement.

Issues Found During the Service

1. Excessive Power Drain
   • The vehicle’s electrical system was experiencing a parasitic power drain, causing the old battery to discharge rapidly.
2. Corroded Battery Terminals
   • The battery terminals were corroded, which impeded efficient power flow and affected the car’s startup reliability.
3. Damaged Ground Cable
   • The ground cable was frayed, causing intermittent power loss and electrical instability.
4. Outdated Battery Management System (BMS)
   • The BMS software was outdated, leading to suboptimal performance and battery inefficiencies.
5. Clogged Ventilation in Battery Compartment
   • Blocked air vents in the battery compartment posed a risk of overheating, which could compromise battery life. Porsche Cayman GT4 Battery Replacement.
