I was able to install a wireless camera on my 2006 Cayenne fairly, and get the video right on the PCM screen, with the help of this blog. 

 

The wireless camera I used was purchased online. These cameras come with two units: transmitter and receiver.  The transmitter fits in instead of one of the rear license plate lights,. The receiver gets connected to the PCM (2.1) via a FAKRA cable connector. I took power from right under the panel in-front of the passenger side. 

 

Lastly, I went to an independent Porsche mechanic (not even the dealer) and asked them to enable the reverse camera. As a heads up, I had to unplug my bluetooth unit (Mobridge) just for the setup, because it causes interference. After enabling the camera, I reconnected the Mobridge system, and everything worked fine. 

 

The nice thing is that the camera works right away as you switch into Reverse. Since the power of my transmitter comes from the rear license plate lights,  please note that your lights switch has to be on. You can get around it if you run a wire to the reverse light.

 

Cost: 

Wireless Camera: $30

Enabling the PCM: $70

Total: $100 USD

 

FYI - When I contacted the dealer, they had no idea how to enable the camera. I guess they should be reading these blogs!

 

Thanks to all who contributed, much appreciated!

Sweet !

Did you had a chance to see what's the name of their scanner they used to setup the rear camera codes?

I'm looking for a shop or at least a dealership known to be able to do this in Houston area.

cheers

Try calling the folks at Sunset Porsche Parts (1-800-346-0182) as that part does not show on my parts list. It stops at the storage bins and does not show that piece.

I will Loren, thanks for the effort,

Cheers,

Left or right?

Interior color?

Also, are you sure that is not all one piece? If you do nothave the side storage area there I thought it was all one piece (floor to window)

Well....left and right. Interior color black.

I do have storage area in both sides, this piece is independent to the side panel on both sides.

Side panel and this piece make the final assembly to cover floor to window.

Hi Loren,

Would you please help me with the part number for this 06 Cayenne Rear Side Plastic Cover?

The picture show exactly the needed piece.

This goes in the trunk next to the last side rear windows.

Thanks for your valuable help on this and have a Merry Christmas !!!!

hey seagod !

I tried some ceramicbrake pads from Duralast (AutoZone) into one of my SUV's (montero sport) and they're dusty...I guess it was Duralast gold or something like that,..,supposedly those are closest to best thing in the market...

I'm planning to replace the pads into my 06 CS veeery soon !

thanks in advance!

Ok - I see the number I gave you is for the other end (at the filter).

The correct number for the ones next to the throttle body is: 955-110-670-00 Locking pin -- US MSRP $3.36 each

Thanks Loren, I just placed the order for this set. Turning the wrong way those locking pins make them "one time use"...(it breaks right away).

PM sent

955-110-269-00 Locking pin -- US MSRP $2.72 each

Loren, I ordered these locking pin in my local Porsche Dealer and after arrival it came to be too long and thin compared to the locking pins I need.

Could you please confirm if this part no. is for my specific Cayenne model?

Thank you always!

Well,.,.,here i'm again looking for another part no, This one goes for the Intake Plenum for a 2006 V8 Cayenne S.

The picture is here below,.,.,basically I need to buy the "crown",.,.all the plastic top part in which the inyectors goes assembled with. One of the vacuum tips got broken,... see below.
