About this engine
This used OEM engine came out of a 2005 Porsche Cayenne with the 4.5L, turbo (engine), 450 HP spec. It matches vehicles whose VIN shows C at digit 5, which is how we confirm the fit before it ships. One unit is in stock with 206,000 donor miles, priced by mileage. The same 4.5L engine (VIN code C) was used in the Porsche Cayenne in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, so a unit from any of those years can fit when your VIN code matches. We list Porsche Cayenne engines for 15 model years (2003–2018), from $1,740 to $18,965.
