All I care about is the tach with the digital speed display and the multifucntion screen to the right which shows the vitals and distance to empty. A simple scroll to check tire pressures at the start of every drive. Rest of the guages I don't even look at.

I love that multi-function display it’s very useful. Least useful gauge for me is the analog speedometer. No need for it when you have the digital Speedo in the rev counter. I wouldn’t mind if the Speedo was a 2nd multi-function screen.

Hmm, I look at the oil temps making sure the car is properly warmed up prior to punching it, also look at gas gauge too- falls quickly as the oil temps warm up

I suppose you can get a duplicate gauge on the multifunction with the oil temps as well. I guess I just love analog gauges.

Miles to empty
Cool temp
Oil Temp
Oil pressure
Miles & time to next stop-over (only active when running a multi stop route in Nav)

And the "one touch" feature on the steering wheel (the diamond icon) is set for tire pressures

My wife’s ‘19 Cayenne has exactly that setup; two Multi-Function displays. The only analog instrument on the cluster is the central rev counter.

Lex, is this feature available on a 2013? I believe I have that button not sure how to set it. Thanks.

Probably. Mine is only 1 year newer (2014). I forget how I did the set-up, but it must have bee easy. Let me know if you want me to dig deeper and check.

Compass

Boost
Water Temp
Oil Pressure
Miles to Empty

About the only thing I toggle to while driving is tire pressure.

I figured it out thanks....it’s set via Settings on the multi-function display using the right steering wheel button. I set mine to scroll through audio sources because I normally listen to BT audio from my phone, and this is the only car that I’ve had that defaults back to radio on every start! 😊

Those of us with Targas & Cabs that have the SmartTop controller can set it for radio off upon start....nice.
