Does the Scangauge work with the Cayenne? http://www.scangauge.com/

Not sure but it doesn't look like it is worth the $170 they want. You can get much better alternatives for roughly the same if not less that are much more powerful and can be loaded to a PALM or Laptop.

Raptor it works on the Cayenne as I tried this morning to see if it works. I use it on my Cooper S. Mike

Mike: Thanks. How do you use it?
LVDell: Do you have any links to the alternatives. The Scangauge does seem somewhat limited functionally, but I thought more powerful ones were pretty pricey.

Here is one that on of the board sponsors had last year for cheaper than the $249 pricetag:

But....here is the one I am going to go with (MUCH cheaper ($125) and just as powerful--PALM based as I want):

Scanguage is very easy to use. Just hook it up to the obd2 port and start car and scan will check compatibility(which it does) then click home button and off you go(read their website very detailed with manual). If you want just guages just press "guage and with the 4 buttons you can toggle what real time readings you want and where on display. I like it because its small and easy to mount with velcro. I mainly bought it for my GT3(GT3 in shop for some modding) because at the track the digital speedometer is on the left and small so can't see it. Make sure you put the scan guage on fast response.

Scangauge is very popular with hybrid car owners, as most hybrids are somewhat lacking in dash information.
