I hooked up the TMC antenna to the OEM diversity antenna and it still can't seem to pick up any TMC station. I guess this functionality does not work for the US.

I just finished installing the unit as well. There is a menu in the system for displaying information like that but it only works on some makes. For cayenne, it is blank.

Update:
I went back and checked again and the unit does display the temperatures like it is shown in the video. As the engine was warming up, the temp was updating as well.

How did you get it to show up? I tried it on mine but I can never get into the OBC Info screen.

Koolkat and mikeymikey,

I will be installing this on Saturday into a 2004 Cayenne S. Looks fairly plug and play, but is there anything I should be looking out for? Do all of connections occur behind the headunit? Or do some occur by the CD Changer?

All the connections are by the front and you don't have to do anything with the cd changer. Putting the unit back into the bay is a pain but doable. I ran all the needed cables now including the rear view camera which I will be installing at some point in future.

Thanks MikeyMikey,

Got it installed today. You are right, it is tight. Quick follow-up question. When streaming via bluetooth, have you found a way to display the song name, etc.?

Good that you got it installed. I haven't played around with Bluetooth much yet. Will try and let you know...

I played around with it but does not seem like there is a way to display information about songs when playing via Bluetooth.

Anyone tried TMC and got it working. Not even sure if it works in the US at all. I'm guessing it doesn't.

I have not been able to get it working. I also assume it will not work, I think I read that on the JandT site.

Anyone have issues with the memory of the unit? Mine almost never is on the same source after I turn off the car. It also always defaults to thinking there is a reverse camera, even though I do not have one. On Jeff's site, it says it may take a few days for the memory stuff to stick, just wondering what everyone else is seeing.

No issues with the memory, the units seems to be working well so far. I am having difficult the unit to pair up with multiple iphones...basically, the scenario is this:
1) Pair up with iphone 1. Turn off Bluetooth.
2) Pair up with iphone 2. Turn off Bluetooth.
3) Turn Bluetooth on iphone 1 but the unit does not auto connect. Have to go into phone settings, forget the connection and pair up again.

Thanks

Just checking to see if anyone has been able to hook up this unit to the CD Changer.
