I’m obsessed with these cars at the moment
I have been too for a very, very long time! Been wanting one ever since I used to drive them in racing games as a kid! Love your channel by the way, been watching your content for a few years now!
I have owned my 06 955 turbo for almost 16 years. I have been over every inch of the car and read more than most about features, diy's, etc on it. After seeing the 12v plugs, under the glove box in your video, I paused, went out to the car, and poked my head under. Proceeded to yell out loud to myself "No FING way!!!!" 😂😂😂 Great post dudes. I still cant believe didnt know that those were there!
I can’t believe I managed to help you find out more! 😆 Thank you for watching!
😂 had the same reaction 🤣🤣
Split tailgate is definitely a great and undervalued feature in today's truck's. They used to be common in the 90's. It's very convenient and I love this feature!
Couldn’t agree more! It was one of the defining reasons why I bought it, I love this design feature so much!
The dual sun visor is an extremely undervalued feature too. My 1999 GMC Jimmy has that and one of the reasons I've kept it for so long is that feature. Really blocks the sun from all angles.
Just hold the "lock" button on the key and all windows should go up... don't need to go back to the car and put the key in the doorlock
It doesn’t work on all models
You missed out that the headlights on the key light up when you press the button. These cars are great I had mine for 7 years now and I love it. great video by the way.
Thank you so much for watching! Unfortunately I think my little lights stopped working on mine!
Excellent video. I'm researching 955s as a replacement for my daily. I accidentally bought a very low mileage Boxster S. It is my weekend girlfriend and I love it. So when I get rid of my daily, it will be a very low mileage 955 turbo. I've watched a lot of videos but have not seen another where ANY of this stuff was mentioned. Thanks a bunch.
I just recently purchased an 04 non turbo but none the less the 4.8L V8 alone has some impressive get up and go. But i must say the Germans have added some really neat and very handy features now if only the big three over here would take notice and do the same instead of just making things subpar.
thus video convinced me i need one of these in my life
Do it! 😉
Very informative video. I've just purchased a used cayenne & Love it. I didn't know alot of the features you discussed and it didn't co.e with an owners manual; thanks so much & keep those videos coming.
Thank you for watching, it’s a superb motor!
Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻
very nice video buddy. keep up the good work
Thank you so much!
Directional headlights is an often missed/unknown feature along with locking diffs front and rear
I did notice the directional headlights when driving at night! However, it never crossed my mind until you mentioned it, but having that technology back in 2003 is crazy! Unfortunately I never took it off road and I don’t have knowledge about the diffs locking front and rear, is that a significant option in a 4x4?
@@NathanMannin yes and no for the diffs really. Basically the Cayenne and it's VW cousin were originally way over engineered and designed to be massively capable off road in it first iterations. However as VW and Porsche learned the market they removed these useful/essential off-road features for the sake of cheaper manufacturing.
Originally these would have been just as if not more capable than a range rover, but that engineering was slowly removed
Nice, I didn't know about the little wrench to close the sunroof being hidden there! I once had to close a sunroof on a Mercedes with a similar tool.
You can never get enough sun visors 😎😉
Absolutely 😉
@@NathanMannin did you find the one above the rear view mirror ?
@@lledrmorganp3591 Yeah it’s in the video
Thanks.. very interesting
Thank you for watching!
I’ve owned my Cayenne for 9 years and I learned about 6 features from this video 😂. And I’ve always wondered what the buttons on the back of the steering wheel did, I’ve never tried them out at night, now I know.
The sunroof tool, the hidden sunshade behind the mirror, the window key trick, the glovebox AC, the 12V sockets, the steering wheel light buttons,the split tailgate, the under passenger seat storage ( my fire extinguisher was missing ), 8 features I have that I didn’t know about. I discovered the air compressor hose after a couple years of ownership, such a good feature.
I’m so glad this video helped! You’re making me miss my Cayenne Turbo now 😆
@@stevelysachok8322 I doubt the original fire extinguisher would be reliable anyway. Just get another that fits. Nice to have.
If you hold the boot release button the split boot will open as well.
The visor over the mirror is to block the dome lights light hitting mirror. So I've been told. I use it as a sun visor too though lol
Interesting, I never knew that!
A revelation to me and I've own mine for about a year ..
I just came across your video, very informative. Can you do one to show how to set the wing mirrors to default driver. Never been able to figure it out
Thank you for watching! Unfortunately I no longer own this car to create more content.
I used to hate the design now its become very cool :-)
Exactly the same with me! It’s never been a looker to me, but despite that I’m still drawn to it’s looks!
You can also shut the windows when u lock the car from the fob keep button pressed Down same again when opening the car
Awesome! I’m going to try that next time!
@@NathanMannin let me know how you get on I would love 1 of these keep the vids coming 👍🏻🏁
It's also in many VW audi vehicles. Also with holding the key in the door
@@Mr7Niice Never knew that, I’m very new to VAG cars!
I have an 04 and mine has a spare tire where your subwoofer is. And it’s one of those spares that expands, so I think that’s why there is the air compressor. I wonder if I could replace where my spare is with a sub like yours?
Don’t see why you couldn’t, just need the necessary parts I suppose!
Me I have an emergency flair on the passenger side.
That’s interesting, where are you from!?
One of the funnest cars I have ever owned, and know I know where the 12v outlets are 🤣
I'm researching to get a 955 turbo. But my Boxster will still be my "funnest" car, no doubt. 955s are really a secret Porsche hack. People think of them as just old Cayennes without realizing that Porsche overbuilt them and added lots of features as they developed the market that were all removed on newer models as soccer Moms didn't care about that stuff. But I do.
Good video. it was watching your video after buying the car that made me decide to buy the 955 turbo S over the 957 turbo. I wasn't sure about the front end, but I do think it is beautiful for being so ugly.
Cheers! I’m glad I could help in some way! I too think the 957 is an overall better looking car, it’s just the weird looks and the timeless design that I love more on the 955 over the 957 : )
@Nathan Mannin It did help. If the interior was upgraded in the 957, especially the entertainment system, I would have probably gone that way. Well, I don't regret getting the 955 Turbo S instead of the 957. I think because it was never pretty, it won't age as badly. I have just removed the rear silencer, and it now sounds like an old Mustang. I found it to quiet under normal use for a 500+bhp car. Thanks
@@joeshaw1265 I completely agree, I really think it’s aged gracefully. Please can you upload a small video so I can hear what that sounds like, would love to know just in case for future reference 😉😅
@Nathan Mannin sure I'll do it in the next few days.
ruclips.net/video/EbPIkE1INk0/видео.html it is only a really quick video. I will try and do an actual one when the car is clean and do an interior noise, etc.
10 Rammstein CD's 👍
My favourite band!
Show us the ride height from outside.
I think I showed that in the “Things I love About My Cayenne Video” : )
You have different rear tires. Probably not very good for your differential.
Yeah I bought it like that, I don’t own it now
What wheels are those
I’m not sure on the names unfortunately, they weren’t standard for this model though, I think they were standard on the 957 Cayenne!
They look like GTS or 2008 Turbo Wheels. I put 2008 Turbos that look like this on my 2006 Turbo.
@@jodyodom4978 I think they were replicas of those on mine. They look nice but completely ruined the ride quality for me, I think 20’s would’ve been the sweet spot!
@@NathanMannin I agree, they did appear to look a little different from OEM. I had 2006 20" Techno Turbos on mine, it drove like a dream. But then I found a set of 2008 OEM 21" Turbos like these at a great price and it still rides like a dream. I have the OEM Techno Turbos 20" for sale here in South Carolina, USA if anyone is interested. Will let them go cheap since they need to be repainted. Original 2006 paint, a few scuffs, but still drive like on glass and rails.
@@jodyodom4978 the 20” Techno’s are the best looking in my opinion and were the ones I wanted! Unfortunately I don’t own the Cayenne anymore, but I do miss it…
Mate you’ve missed so many hidden features
Which ones?
The headlights have a cool feature when you turn the steering wheel an extra light comes on to help you see in the road on the direction you are turning.
The tool under the arm rest also works for removing the top piece of the center console in case of emergency park release needed.
The air suspension lowers the vehicle making it easier for you to load stuff in the rear compartment.
The rear view mirrors can be folded by turning the knob.
The tool kit comes with a tool to remove the headlights.
Automatic heated steering wheel, one handed manual paddle shifting, memory mirrors, steering position auto level at high speed, crawler gears for downhill no brake required, alarms if trailer hitch installed and disconnected involuntary, if window is down and you reach in it will alarm, biggest feature empty your pockets in fuel costs

Well compared to a 1 litre ford fiesta weighing 1/3rd of a Cayenne and engine of such Cayenne being 4.5 times larger displacement I don’t consider the real world different of around 6mpg much to worry about.
My style of driving returned 22.1 REAL WORLD IN THE FORD….
Perhaps speak from experience has more value and the features you mentioned barely tough the surface.
