have an 09 Cayenne Turbo S, I need an ipod integration kit and the nav screen to play video. Dvd player will play sound but no video. Any recommendations on what to get?!

 

no way to get video on screen yet. ipod kits are at suncoast parts, installation DYI but needs coding by dealer (10 min max)

 

Thanks for the Help!, spoke with Nav-tv they said i need the pcm 3 media kit and the pcm 3 av kit as well as a seperate dvd player. I've read that nav-tv kits did not work well with older pcm systems, any news on how the nav-tv pcm 3 media kit works with the new system?

 

Sorry, i cannot comment on their reliability as i cannot see myself paying 1600 for a media kit, then extra for av kit and then DVD player in the current market. I made a cable from two old ethernet cables and two $.5/piece connectors and now have IPOD connection for PCM3 with the same functionality as OEM connector for $430.

 

I just got an 09 Cayenne w/o the ipod interface option. Can you please elaborate or provide resources to your solution? Thanks!

 

I have '09 Cayenne Turbo S with Porsche ipod interface, aux and usb - seems to work fine. No vid solution yet .. not required IMO as I'm focused on driving ..

 

i managed to get my dealer to request a code without ordering any parts. (Nav-tv is only known to me alternative to getting a code but at a price that is more than OEM retrofit kit it is a bit of nonsense). code has to be put in by dealer using PIWIS. cable itself is simple: PCM 3 side is 12-pin 2.54mm IDC connector. other end is IPOD connector. It is a total pain to solder IPOD connector to get around it you can buy Porsche ipod cable 997.612.471.01 ($40 or something) and connect homemade cable (need 10 wires - two old ethernet cables would give you 16 wires) to it. you will also need three resistors. in any case if you want to go this route , let me know i ll give you connection diagram . otherwise there is OEM retrofit kit (SUnset parts). installtion is DIY, only need 10 min at dealer to put the code in.

 

I have a 09 GTS as well with the iPod kit...my only *****? It's a non-charging interface, meaning your iPod battery will drain over time. I have iPod docks on all my audio/video gear at home, and all are charging docks, no idea why Porsche did that.

 

in case you need to charge your ipod on the go you can plug it into the usb plug to charge it.

 

The USB port is dah bomb!

 

IPOD interface will charge all ipod's except for last generation whichever that is

 

thaaank you all

 

Can I easily just add an auxiliary input?

 

Another brand that's very good is DICE electronics. They are similar to the Dension setup. They just came out with an updated unit called the mObridge. I found mine at www.outlookproducts.com. I don't have the Nav screen, but I believe they said they have two modules for Porsche and one of them has video-out capabilities for the Nav Screen. The customer service was very good too.

 

the nav tv peice works
