Default PDCC is amazing!

I just want to 2nd whoever said look for this in your next Cayenne.

It is scary how going around corners in a 5,000+ lbs truck feels like my old 944 turbo I had 15 years ago.

PDCC and PVT were a must have on my Oct build!

BMW has almost the same system. I'm sure it's programmed differently.


I wasn't super happy with it on my BMW. At straight ahead, the ride was a bit floaty and loose feeling since the anti-roll bars were disconnected.

Which Cayenne did you end up with?

I couldn't agree more on PDCC, it completely transforms the P!g.

Not sure if this was directed at me or at touareg. If it were to me, I have a 2014 CTTS that is scheduled for an Oct build and hopefully a late Nov delivery.

This the only thing I miss on our lightly optioned 2013 Cayenne. It's otherwise just perfect for our needs and wants in an SUV that see real SUV duty. I wish it would have been offered as an option with the base suspension. $7k with the air suspension bundle is way too much in relation to our total build price. A pity. Still love our pig.

Well, the air suspension plus PDCC was well worth the cost. I love going around corners fast!

I've also ordered all of the suspension goodies and appreciate how well my Cayenne handles.

One thing I've wondered about, how does PDCC effect tire ware? It seems that it would keep the wear pattern more across the entire thread of the tire instead of loading up the edges as the truck leans (w/o PDCC).

Another great thing about PDCC is that it disconnects the sway-bars when off tarmac. Really helps wheel articulation and worrying about broken endlinks - best of both worlds.

Now that's sort of funny. I have a friend who used to campaign a 944 but it remained street legal (his serious car was a 914). I drove and rode in it plenty and never have before or since felt like I was in a car machined from a solid billet of steel.

That is until the CTT wandered in. My first trip was some mild forest roads and I had that thought that this feels like a 944 but is doing it offroad. Yeah, it does it onroad but so does the 944

Completely agree. First GTS was an 08 w/o PDCC - impressive truck, and now an 09 w/ PDCC and it's appreciable in both steady state and transitions - read "very impressive truck".

Cayenne was already taken. And that was my ride before my 955 s.
