Guys, I was looking through that and other forum and have heard something about this. What is the problem? Can you explain me? It is real?

Yes unfortunately. What happens is the cayenne hestitates for a second or so when you press on the gas the solution is turning off PSM

Thank you for answer. But is it really that bad or you can cope with it? And drivining all the time with PSM switched off will make it less stable?

And what about driving with PSM switched off? Does it make the car much more quicker and much less stable? I just want to know all the things about the car before getting it, because I've never had a porsche car before, only BMW cars.
And another question: does the cayenne S really do 0-62 mp\h (0-100 km\h) in 7,2 seconds? Is it with PSM switched off? If not, then with PSM switched off it will be faster? Anybody have any information on those seconds? It is just a bit strange, because the restyling (2003) bmw x5 4.4 does 0-62 mp\h (0-100 km\h) in 7 seconds (at least in specification chart). Of course, 0,2 seconds is nothing but I just thought that porsche should be faster, because it is PORSCHE.

Switching off PSM makes the car much faster. You can def feel the difference. Regarding the 0-62 times I have no idea but im pretty sure it does better with PSM turned off.

Iam not sure. I bought the car as an untitled 2004 dealer left-over 6 months ago. This update had apparently not been performed...

Those updates are free, if the car doesn't have any warranty? If not, then how much approximetely it could cost?

You dont pay anything. Recalls have nothing to do warranty.
