I've never driven a Cayenne with this option, but I've heard it is a "must have" option on a new Cayenne.

It is a device which eliminates body roll when cornering! And a must have!

Yes the system does work very well but it is noisy, especially at low speeds going over bumpy roads or curbs. The actuators opening and closing is what makes all the noise so try one out first to see if you can live with it.

This is an easy problem to diagnose - your music is not LOUD enough!!!

Have had limited experience with it, but I would consider PDCC a must, if you are really going to drive it hard. Would be second only to a power upgrade and there is no incremental power upgrade in that price range that is close to the overall value of PDCC, from my seat-of-the-pants impression. Wish it had been available for my '05.

I had a Cayenne Turbo without PDCC, now have GTS with and it is a MUst option.Amazing technology, can really push harder in curves.

my turbo had it but the gts does not.

keeps it really flat - i would order it if you can but if you are going off the lot and it has pretty much everything else you want - not a breaker imo.

the only real complaint was that the option seems to disconnect the driver a bit from the experience.

i use my GTS mostly in the winter, so cornering can be limited sometimes!
