+1 bump on that. I leave mine at about 40%. Love the way it looks, especially around the door pulls. Would love to see how it looks in colors other then orange though.

Not on my 2009 CS. I looked, saw some odd shapped "holes" but no 12-V outlets.

UPDATE: I found them both. They are VERY hidden. I never would have known they were there. Are they shown in the manual.

Cool Thread!

-Thanks

Great Post!

If not already noted the 2009 models have a 12v outlet tucked way up on the left side of the passenger footwell. It is at the bottom of the dash on the console side. Great for cell phone power cords!

Thank's Jeff, It's a great way to learn or re-learn I think one of the greatest vehicles ever designed.
Here's another while I'm at it, the gas cap door holds the gas cap so you don't have to lay it dangling on the paint.Name:  Gas cap.jpg

Right. One is constant 12V on and the other one turns on when the key is turned on.

It's on models going back to 2005 also (maybe even the alpha beta's in 2004).

There is a bit of a lag in my cayenne turbo off the line so I turn off the PSM button and it would let me select to 1st gear to get a better acceleration off the line. Happy Holiday Guys!

I love my 996 C4S, but boy do I miss my Cayenne and all the features. The 996 is so far behind..

windows auto up / down

On the '08 Cayenne S, if the truck is locked, insert the key in the driver's door, turn to the 9 o'clock position, and hold. All the windows roll down. Not so helpful now as during the dog days in the summer. Conversely, upon exiting insert the key in the driver's door, turn and hold to the 3 o'clock position will close the any open windows and arms the vehicle. Depending upon which comfort / vehicle settings you have (interior motion on), upon unlock and opening the windows you need to unlock / disarm via the key fob or the alarm [can / usually does] go off within a minute.
