They all come in here, delicate and fresh... smiling when they think of their Cayenne in the garage.

It doesn't take too long until they are deflowered.

Yet... they keep coming back for more...

Welcome to Cayenne ownership!

lovethesport,
welcome and enjoy your Cayenne in good health, our member T2 has about 150k miles on his CTT and still enjoying it like day one... my 05 Cayenne had over $3k warranty service done right before reaching 50k miles, thanks to this forum...great (and sometime funny) people with lots of car knowledge as long as you do a search before asking a question (been there done that)
No camparison between the P SUV and BMW SUV.
best.
Sam

He came from a BMW...no doubt he is in heaven now!

Ps. Mine usually starts in reverse...then after I get out of the driveway, it switches into 2nd gear.

So let me get this straight........ It's normal for the Cayenne to start out in 2nd gear?

I have only had my '04 S for a few weeks, and I swear that when I got it, it started in first gear, but now it starts in 2nd....... and that's normal?

The car normally only moves off in D1 in cold weather or when the engine/gearbox is cold, once it's warmed up it will always take off in D2.... Hope this helps and this is perfectly normal...

Dammit - I don't qualify as any of those.

Funny ; )

Mine actually starts in P before getting to R, but mine is an '04.
