Alex,

about a week after buying the Cayenne, I had the dealer install the clear markers, cd changer, hard wire my v1 and install the techart module. they told me that the unit had to be coded before installation and reprogramed after a test ride to clear all faults.

all the above took less than a full day. when I picked it up it looked great and worked like a charm. I was in a hurry to beat Chicago traffic so I didn't ask a lot questions.

sorry for the lack of specifics .....

pm me with your email address and I'll send you pics.

I didn't realize the module required a reprogram? Anyone have anymore details on this?

My Cayenne Turbo arrives 3 months later, hope you still have it...

BTW, the unit will lower the car for about 40mm for the lower level, how about the loading level and off road level?? Will still be maintained as same?

Techart module basically resets the factory base points for the height. it requires dealer install mainly because only dealer have access to the Porsche Tester computer. there's 2 version of the module. u can tell which one works by checking the VIN of the car. before anyone buys used double check it first to make sure it would work properly.
