Please doble check the code. I checked the factory service manual and there is no P1192 code listed for your model year. It could be the P1092 which is for the MAF.

I have a 2006 Porsche Cayenne Turbo with this code. I am told it is indicating "excessive slippage" internal to the torque converter. The torque converter was just replaced with a stage 2 upgrade. My mechanic told me it may be the fluid level/viscosity or the TC itself. We are still troubleshooting.
