The Genuine Porsche Engine Spark Plug 95517022090 is an original Porsche ignition-system component designed for compatible Porsche Cayenne 957 3.6L V6 applications. It is installed in the cylinder head and provides the electrical spark required to ignite the compressed air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber.
Porsche part number 95517022090, formatted as 955 170 220 90, is directly documented for the Cayenne 957 / 9PA1 with the naturally aspirated 3.6L V6 petrol engine. Specialist Porsche catalogue data associates it with engine code M55.01.
The 3.6L V6 uses one spark plug per cylinder, meaning six spark plugs are required when replacing the complete engine set. Unless specifically advertised as a set, however, this listing represents one individual spark plug.

Why Choose Genuine Porsche Spark Plug 95517022090?
Genuine Porsche Ignition Component
95517022090 is an original Porsche spark-plug reference specified for compatible Cayenne ignition systems. Using the correct spark plug helps maintain the ignition characteristics required by the engine-management system.
Designed for the Cayenne 3.6L V6
The strongest documented Porsche application for this reference is the Porsche Cayenne 957 3.6L naturally aspirated V6 petrol engine, with strong catalogue coverage approximately 2007–2010 depending on production date and market.
One Spark Plug Per Cylinder
The applicable 3.6L V6 engine uses six spark plugs per engine. A complete replacement normally requires six plugs, but this EAT listing remains one piece unless specifically packaged and priced as a six-piece set.
Spark Plug Function
The ignition coil supplies high voltage to the spark plug. The spark produced across the electrode gap ignites the compressed air-fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber. The spark plug and ignition coil are separate components.
Installation Information
Spark plugs should be installed according to the applicable Porsche workshop procedure, including the correct specification, clean spark-plug bore, correct thread engagement and tightening procedure. Do not use a universal tightening torque without confirming the exact Porsche engine and workshop specification.

Porsche spark-plug requirements vary according to model, model year, engine displacement, engine code, production date, engine-management specification and VIN. Provide the complete 17-digit VIN to European Auto Spares for accurate compatibility verification.
