Lane Keeping System Options
I just bought a 2025 Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid and am trying to set the Lane Keeping system. My other vehicles I own I can set the system to just give me feedback through the steering wheel with variable strengths of vibration without having the system correct my steering. I can not seem to be able to do this on the Cayenne. I really do not like the vehicle steering me back into the lane. There are different settings as to how aggressive the correction can be inforced, High, Medium, Low And Off. But with Off the whole lane keeping system is off. No warning or feedback for drifting out of the lane.
Does anyone know if there is a setting to just have feedback on without the correction?
Thank you

Assuming yours has Innovdrive which is a level 2 adaptive cruise control. If so, you can't adjust it beyond what you have already discovered. OFF is OFF, and the rest is how aggressively it responds. It's a decent system for Interstate cruising, I like mine. However, I don't use it on regional roads.

My ‘22 has two lane keep assist versions. “Active Lane Keep Assist” is aggressive and will steer the car to follow then lines. Just using “Lane Keep Assist” gives an audible warning and bumps the steering wheel if you change lanes without using the turn signal. I never use Active as I consider it dangerous in too many situations similar to Chassis, but occasionally use the milder version.

For my TEH I optioned Innodrive, and this solves everything. It automatically centers you in the lane, even going around corners at highway speeds. ALK almost never beeps unless you’re really forcing it to drive out of the lane or a very narrow country road. And it’s fantastic in stop and go traffic. It’s not Tesla autodrive, but it’s pretty darn good.
Sadly, from other posts I’ve seen Innodrive is not software-purchasable and self-upgradeable like it evidently is on Taycans in Europe. Evidently due to physically upgraded cameras or sensors.

A post at the following link has a screen shot from a Porsche web page that says functionality of the FoD version of InnoDrive is less but doesn't go into detail: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/th...11/#post-92717
IIRC, a post on a Taycan forum said that the FoD version of InnoDrive required steering wheel movement instead of a touch due to the touch version of the steering wheel being present only when InnoDrive is factory installed.
Kyle Connor on his YouTube "Out of Spec Motoring" channel added InnoDrive with ALK it to a Taycan with an FoD download in one of his videos and then showed how it worked, which was not very well, when driving on Colorado mountain roads.

I’ve had the ‘24 base with just ALK, and now a ‘24 TEH with Innodrive. Unfortunately the high-low sensitivity options are it. And even at low it’ll beep at you more than you want. You can turn it off just by pushing the tiny button at the bottom of the cruise control stalk, and it will stay off until re-enabled. Realistically, while it greatly annoyed me when I first owner my base, it slowed forced me over a number of months to drive in the center of the lane better. As many have said, not a great system. My 2019 Audi was definitely better and you’d think they share more tech.

Active Lane Keeping (ALK) works as others described it above. It actively keeps you centered in your lane and if you try to override it will gently vibrate the steering wheel and make a warning sound.
Then there is Lane Change Assist…
On pre facelift 9Y0 it was possible to enable ALK (and LKA) via PIWIS if you have therequired hardware (ACC and ZFAS with 360 camera support).

I think you meant that your '24 base had "just LKA" (Lane keep Assist) instead of "just ALK" (Active Lane Keeping). Big difference. The cruder LKA is akin to slapping you in the face to get you back into your lane after you drift out of it. ALK actively keeps you centered in your lane which should mean that LKA is rarely if ever invoked as long as you use your turn signals when changing lanes or turning. LKA will bug the crap out of people who don't use turn signals. Fortunately, unlike BMW, Porsche has turn signals.
The bottom line is get Innodrive to keep you centered in the lane and solve the annoyances. Porsche describes this on the Monroney for the Turbo E-Hybrid as "Innodrive incl. ACC and ALK (upgrade)"
On the website, it lists "Active Lane Keep Assist" as a component of InnoDrive which it also just calls "Active Lane Keep":

It quite frustrating that that Porsche is bundling Active Lane Keeping + Lane Keep Assist with Innodrive on Cayenne (option code PY1). And then even more so on Taycan where ALK+LKA+Innodrive is called Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control (sold as option code P4S).
In reality, the underlying capabilities of the car (at least inthe first gen) don’t work that way and on some variants of 9Y0 Cayenne (specifically 2019-2020), ALK+LKA can be activated without Innodrive, by just enabling option code 6I6 in the vehicle spec. And with that, ALK will actively keep you in the lane by taking control of steering and adjusting speed via ACC and tracking cars ahead of you. Additionally, you can also enable Traffic Jam Assist (option code GJ1) so it follows cars in the queue at lower speeds.
All Innodrive does is adding GPS data to predict upcoming turns and speed limit changes to adjust your speed in ACC.
However, I am guessing that in newer cars (Taycan and 9Y0.2) ALK can’t be enabled separately anymore.
