Yep.. but works great for turning off the service light in a 2004 Cayenne TT

Thanks guys. Now to convince the dealer that did not sell me the key that they programmed it wrong... :huh:

The part number difference isn't an issue? No chance KESSY is faulty?

From recent personal experience the KESSY (Keyless Entry System) needs to be reactivated for your keys at the dealer using the PIWIS. The car needs to accept the RFIDs of the Key FOBs as its own. I went in to have a new FOB programmed and they needed both keys. I was in a hurry when I left and didn't realize that KESSY was no longer working for the old key and not the new key either. I brought it back to the dealer and after monkeying with it for a while they got KESSY working again with the old key FOB. This is the weird part. The new car won't let me unlock the door with the new key in my pocket (KESSY). I have to manually unlock either with the metal blade or push the unlock on the remote. Once I am in the car the new key is recognized and will allow the ignition to be started with the plastic enter & drive key.. the old key unlocks the door while in my pocket (KESSY) when I touch the door handle. The old key in my pocket allow me to start the car with the plastic key. Here is an interesting new behavior... When you walk to the back to open the hatch with the new key (no KESSY working) in your hand the doors lock and the alarm is armed automatically after closing the door. You have to push the button on the remote to unlock the car again to lift the lid. The old key opens the lid just by touching it with your hand. Very odd.. Anyone have any ideas? Neither the local dealer nor the dealer that sold me the key (Sunset) seems to know why this is not working... Sunset thinks it might be the KESSY or antenna (antenna makes no sense to me personally since the old key works) and the local thinks its the new key from Sunset... Any ideas? Anyone seen this behavior before? The part numbers are different on the keys.. Old Key 7L5 959 755 R 4603 - FCC ID KR55WK45032 - CAN 267 104 187 New Key 7L5 959 753 G A 4907 - FCC ID KR55WK45022 - CAN 267 104 187

I've always thought my horn sounded wimpy. Not in a "not loud enough" way but too high pitched. If there are two horns in the car is it reasonable to assume there is a low and a high tone horn. If so maybe the low tone is out. Sure sounds effeminate from my perspective when I use it... Maybe I need a locomotive airhorn!!! This is exactly the case. I had this same issue and the 2nd, lower (more manly) tone horn was out. Nice, loud and effective again after an OEM replacement. If it happens again though I think I will go with the airhorn. I would do both. Never use the horn unless you mean it. :)

There is an easy way.. I did it and pasted how I did it in this thread.. http://www.renntech.org/forums/index.php?s...65&hl=crest Or you can take the front bumper off.. no thanks.. :)

This stuff German made SIDOL worked for me with a green Scott pad.. http://www.govacuum.com/miele-149.html

Flash the computer with the "chip" firmware and you will get the missing boost of Turbo S... up to 1.2Bar (17.40 psi)... although I have not dyno'ed it.. They send you a slave programmer cable you hook up to your laptop and you run some software and apply a firmware tuning file... There are plenty out there... I got mine from Oliver at www.SpeedTuningUSA.com... works great.

1) Find a good Porsche mechanic (maybe a dealer, maybe not.. not can be MUCH cheaper) 2) Buy the exntended warranty and make sure your mechanic takes it first. If you bank at a credit union, check with them on their pricing. Ask your mechanic that you trust about the warranties available. They know which ones pay the most by their experience. 3) Pray you never need it. 4) Make sure you do ALL OF YOUR MAINTENANCE and DOCUMENT IT!!!! If not, warranties will look to get out of anything that can be related to a maintenance item. 5) Pray some more you never need it. One item can easily eat up what you might pay for one. 6) Check to see if its transferable because you might want to sell the car and a warranty is a great selling feature. 7) Sacrifice a chicken and pray some more.

The spare battery is a keeper especially in your rural area. The Main is under the driver seat. So I would strongly consider the external mount. http://www.porsche.com/usa/accessoriesands...paretireholder/ All Cayenne Models Exclusive Driver's Selection Online Shop Assuring easy access to the spare tire, the exterior lockable tire holder offers optimum security, durability and convenience. Full size spare and wheel cover not included in the spare tire holder kit and additional parts are required. Please contact your local authorized Porsche dealer for more information. Part no. 955 044 000 21

I forgot to mention that you want to put the decals on while the paint is still a tiny bit sticky/tacky to the touch so it bonds best to the paint/caliper... then they never come off.. neat trick the guy selling th decals told me... Also VHT SP731 paint is what you want to use VHT = Very High Temp brand... rock solid.

My CTT came in red but I did my '96 Camaro with Camaro decals and they look great. In hindsight I would definitely take them off next time though the overspray or taping is a B@%@#... Do it when you go in for a brake job... good to refill and bleed anyway... no biggie..

Can you post pictures of what you spliced in where? I'm thinking about this now too! That sub in the wheel well is weak... Anyone want one? I'll sell mine cheap! :)

The other fellow is correct. There are two sub sizes. I have the one you have and the spare definitely fits around it. If you had the other model you would not even be asking the question as there is absolutely no room around it. The whole complaint was that the smaller didn't make enough bass so they made a bigger one and offer the full-size spare for the hatch door. I bought a perfectly good spare for my '04 CTT off ebay and now I have the spare and the Bose sub. I did a search for you on ebay and there is someone (not me :) ) selling a spare... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/18-PORSCHE-...emZ120315181446 Bid $350 or BIN for $395 Its funny about the bass thing becuase on an impulse buy I bought another Bose sub because I didn't think mine had one or it wasn't working. So now I have a spare. I've read that you can tap into the Sub cable and use a line level coverter and gets some power in the back to run a real amp and sub... hrmm... maybe one day... - Andrew

What intake did you get? Did you get the issue fixed? If so, what benefit have you noticed? Thanks!

Yes! and it is a one-step DIY... TomTom One 3rd Edition... $119.00 http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/1316...uto-Navigation/ Screw Porsche on this one... this is far better deal, better updates, mapshare community, lowest gas prices updates... Porsche can't touch it.. Suction cup to windshield.. Here is a Porsche Logo only splash screen.... http://www.colinj.co.uk/tomtom/splash/porsche/splash.bmp Here is the one that I use with Porsche and TomTom hands... http://www.deepraver.com/splash.bmp Enjoy... :D - Andrew

For what it is worth the Dension with the latest firmware is rock solid and I've been running it for months now. I love it. I have not tried the bluetooth.. the installation in the back where the changer is took me all of 20mins.. no lie... with drinking the beers. :) Oh, and all I need to do to listen to the CDC is to turn the Dension off like for a visit to the dealer. Feel free to ask questions... - Andrew

Anyone know how to hook up the Bose Subwoofer to the Factory Bose System in a 2004 CTT? Thanks for any help in advance! - Andrew

How about the reverse? Anyone know how to hook up the Bose Subwoofer to the Factory Bose System in a 2004 CTT?

There are people on the Internet that say send me your PCM and I will mod it for AV input.. $495 + Shipping + Removal and Replacement into car... umm.. Anyone have an idea what this mod is? Anyone want to try a DIY?? :)

Ok, so how much is the PCM upgrade going to set you back? I'm thinking it might be significantly cheaper and better overall to get access to the AV button/video display mode of the PCM and broadcast from an external GPS like a tomtom or handheld PC. The updates would then be consistent and far cheaper.. If you mounted it right you could surf the web on it too.. Just my .02, - Andrew

They made my 2004 Cayenne TT sound awesome. They are lighter than stock, look better, pull smoother and sound great.. not too much... I went to a local authorized Flowmaster dealer with a great reputation here in St. Petersburg, FL and they did a great job.. these photos are after a good week of testing..All those other exhausts are from $1600 to $5000 (Titanium) and I got these installed, out the door for $750+tax. They called flowmaster for their take and I showed him some pictures of the pricier versions. He corrected a twist on my exhaust that was there from the previous owner's poor handling and polished my tips too. The tips are perfectly flush now, no more burns unloading. Sweet!

My three cents (adjusted for inflation) is that I have it mounted in the back for a few reasons. The main reason is the ipod is out of sight in a place where a crackhead rumaging won't look. I got one stolen out of my Camaro armrest. I can't imagine having out there in the air with a "steal me" sign on it.. yes, the alarm went off.. he was too fast and the people protecting the car garage were asleep.. The next reason is that the install took 15mins thanks to this guide. I drank two Stella Artois instead which explains the performance gain considering it's a lighter beer.. maybe higher octane.. ;o) It may also explain the weird click.. no, just kidding, running the lastest firmware it works great.. I bought an 80GB off this kid just for the pepper.. filled it up with Radio 1 Essential Mix, Fergie, Digweed, Freeland and the like and I'm good to go.. untz untz untz.. The PCM Gateway interface works like a charm for me so no need to ever touch or see the iPod until I get bored with the 80GB... and need a refresh.. :lol: The glovebox, armrest, anywhere in the passenger space is where the criminals look.. I keep that empty like a desert.. no signs of life.. I guess they can get my owners manual and obsole NAV Cds.. darn.. then I'd get a new NAV from the insurance!!! -
