Cayenne: RWD -2WD Conversion/Front Transaxel Disconnect
Hello:
I wanted to know if it is possible to decouple the front driveshaft. I never offroad and would prefer to keep the car in 2WD mode.
Has anyone done this before?
Thanks

Hi CayenneS2006, di you ever get this figured out, I have a 2004 S and I disconnected the front diff, but the car doesnt drive right, when cornering it feels like the trans is slipping. I'm guessing that the trans module needs to be bypassed.......

Its not going to work. Not now, not ever. The system is full time AWD. Without going into a lengthy hypothetical explanation, the transfer case has a clutch controlled by a stepper motor which first controls lockup to the front versus rear and then into 4 low range and then finally locking the clutch pack so that power distribution is 50/50. This is why you must first enter 4low before you can lock the center diff.
