  1. Hello 2.1 Kit will works in any cayenne. of course 2 part numbers for two absolutely different devices. Dvd update - yes. 2.1 with phone button, in europe at least. No part# on labels. no cd rom for nav in 2.1 unit. I suggest you do not use ebay. Ask porshe shop for device with sighn "X" in the end of part number - means Rebuilded. Cost chirpper. Regards.
  2. PCM should be activated and coded (country, units, equipment, etc) with system tester. If you do not have phone (or some else) installed phone should be removed from component list. Regards, Alex.
  3. First, PCM2.1 Retrofit kit includes head unit, navi, copper wires with some connectors. no manuals, no optic cables, no dvd cover. No, you should connect system tester to make codings in pcm modules and gateway units, all depend from year of the car. But in common case system should work, with errors and not all devices, C-F, km-Mls, FM/AM step In some cases you should connect tester to switch unit on first time, or wake unit up. You need slightly modify wiring for head unit if where no tel unit installed/ sos button in roof console. A lot of variants, suggest to do it in workshop, it should be about 7.5 hours to pay, including all - removing/installing all trims, and roof lining, seat, gps antenna and routing all cables. In fact, it take up to two days. Alex
  4. Hello! Here is some about Dension. We have one installed last week in 2005 CT, works good, sound and control is great, switch playlists from steereng wheel!!! Tags display ok, but sometime playlist and traks swith with delay, don know why, may be we used old NANO - manual notify about last firmware in Ipod. Installation not so difficult, but I think you should be skilled in cayenne and electronics to install this unit. You can hide unit in the trunk on your choice - if f you have CD changer or amplifier installed. And do not forget swith unit back to changer if one installed before leave a car in dealers workshop - danger to pay money for fixing error in most ring - cd changer)))) OVERALL - NICE, RECOMMENDED. Alex PS As I know, difference between software versions of PCM can cause different "bugs" in controllig unit, especially regarding 2003-2004 MY.
  5. Parking lights - turn switch from off to any position, or swith on turn signal with ignition key removed. Lamps (or lamp) should be on, same time with tail lights)))))))) else look for error messages. May be go to veh.info->warnings in cluster menu. Else go to workshop(((((( Remember - all head and tail lamps has diagnosis, and if some off but no messages - chek control units, I suggest before bulb replacement. In some cases reinitializing brains solve problems. Corner sensetive lights - lower lenses - comes brighter when you turn steerin wheel from center position on to ~5 deg. works with deep or high beams. Hope it will help. Alex
  6. Parking light in circle, lower corner-sensetive light, in any case you shoul see warnings in instrument cluster display. Alex
  7. Looks really good, same leather, and very important - you can adjust screens in vertical because headrests can not be moved. Headphone included, Installation should take about full day in porsche workshop, not so difficult, but need to remove a lot of parts - seats, carpets, right trim in the trunk. bad news - dvd player installed on rear seat and you can not seat at center - not so difficult to fix, another bad news - no connection to front screen pcm/cdr system - no video, no audio - it is not so easy to solve, depend of car age and equipment installed. And last bad news - only ONE SCREEN, phones and dvd player included in kit. If you want second screen - order separately. Hope this is all. Alex.
  8. Got detailed instructions on this? I did not know you could defeat the error message... Try to disconnect bulb, turn on lights and drive a little. If no errors - you are winner. I did this 3 days ago on 2005 S Alex.
  9. yor can reconnect lamps in side markers in parralel to headlights turns to reach european style, but be shure to connect to proper wires to aviod error mesages on dash. Enjoy your drive
  10. No, front light controlled directly by Electrical system ctrl unit in front, rear light controlled by rear control unit. regarding front cornering light - did you remove light? in this case you should use original contact spray before put light assy back, described in workshop manual, not in user book. in case light was not removed - if lamps below hid lenses works ok depend of turning steering wheel - keep in yor mind to replace bulb in closest future. same with back lamps. both of them connected in parralel to one output and if you seen warnings it means lamps(95%%) or contacts will take your attention soon. Enjoy yuor drive
  11. Outside - put fingers over glass from outer side and pull out with care. pay attn to connectors
  12. Where should be optical connector with white plastic cup. OR you should route optical cables from other MOST devices. AND note, in any case? you should code your system at Porsche dealer.
  13. Does anyone know about possibilities of replacing instrument cluster in Cayenne S on cluster from Turbo (w/ multicolor LCD central sector)? Have anybody seen this upgrade done? Thanks! Alex.
