1. Is there anyway to set the trunk release button on the key fob such that you must hit the button twice instead of once. I must have bumped the key or something one day and noticed my trunk was wide open. Only having to hit the button once is problematic. Is there a way to adjust?
2. I'm hoping I don't have air ride suspension, it's never a matter of if a strut or compressor will go out, it's when. I know for sure I don't have a button to raise or lower the car. But when I unlock my doors I hear a hissing sound as if the car is raising or lowering (like other cars I've owned). I also have the ability to adjust the suspension (the button below sport mode). Does that mean I have air ride and just no ability to raise and lower? If that's the case how does the suspension tighten up without air?
3. I've seen a Panamera with a different hood. It had more of a bump in the center. Looked more aggressive. I'm not sure if it was a newer model, or of the hood was that of a S or GTS. Anyone know if those hoods are swappable?
This link will let you access the "official" Porsche Build Sheet for your car. Put your VIN # at the end (in place of the holder characters) and you should be able to tell if you have Air Suspension or not.
2. Air suspension - take a peek in the wheel well. With air suspension, you will see the airbag assembly in place of the shock/strut. With air suspension, there is a button to raise the car ("high level")
3. The hood changed between model year 2013 and 2014. Do not know if they are interchangeable.
Thank I definitely don't have the button but I was wondering how you can put suspension in stiffer sport mode without it? I'll take a peek under the car.

PASM feature is separate from air suspension. PASM controls suspension firmness and is a prerequisite for air suspension.
