Loren I have now information that someone has had this installed as well and a drive by wire software revision, Northern CA Dealer.

Are you aware of what these updates are for ? has there been any new TP's for the cayenne ?

Thanks

Mike

p.s. my number plate adapted just arrived, thanks for the part #'s

NAVTECH are advising that 2003 Nav Data disks cannot be used without a firmware or new flash for the embedded SW.

This is countered by a response from my dealer that PCA said that if its true they have not been told yet by NAVTECH.

Anyone heard anything ?

Mike

Thank you I will get on it.

Thanks Loren, looks like its 23, pt # 955 701 105 00 I am missing.

When I blew up a factory taken digital (ngfan) I think I can see it now.

Any idea where I might get one in the US or should I just order from europe ?

I just fitted a standard German front plate to my S, dealer tells me that this is responsible for failure of my Park Assist system.

Going by photo's I mounted it as close to a German S as I could get.

Anyone know of this problem or the correct location and mounting arrangement for a German or indeed a UK front plate.

A lot has been written regarding the pro’s and con’s of replacing the stock air filters on Cayenne S and Turbo.

From most peoples experience including my own, there is a marked improvement in the low-end pick up which “almost” eliminates the low speed transmission lag.

The project is clearly diy and should take no longer than 45 minutes.

Start my removing the engine bay covers. These are held on with ¼ turn fasteners. Make sure you are careful, if they pop out they will fly to that place where lost nuts and bolts end up.

Once done you can begin to take the flex air pipes off the center fixed pipe. Release the ring clamps and slide to the middle, pull off each hose.

Release the O2 sensor plugs at each side, use a flat blade screw driver, insert into slot and pull to release (tricky).

Also on the left air box at the rear midway down there is a hose attached, you may not be able to see it at first but you can feel it. It’s tough to get off but it does come off in the end.

There are 2 spring clips at the top of each box, release them and then pull the box away at the top and then up.

The stock air filters can now be pull out of their seat.

I chose BMC racing filters to replace the stock ones. These are Porsche authorized.

Make sure you bed them in all the way around, the slimy rubber surround makes this easy.

Replace the boxes by locating the to plugs at the bottom of the box with the 2 notches on the base. Redo the spring clips and put it back together.

No real issues at all.

There are some pictures here of the process
