cayenne air suspension

[heightswitch]

can someone help me with specs.
Been looking at some 08 and 09 gts cayennes and I am one of the few that need the full adjustable ride height.

Noticed that some cars claiming to have the full air suspension have the 2 toggles but the centre trim between the toggles is black. on others it is silver. Have seen cars with the sport button and the firmness controls with both black and silver trim between the toggles..can any enlightened owner help with the various options and which one is the full monty.

Cheers
Neil.

On GTS, PASM on steel springs is standard and PASM with air is an option.
So all GTS get the Sport, Comfort and Standard buttons in the middle for the damping.
They all get a Sport button as standard.
But only the ones with air get the second roller switch on the right to control ride height (the one on the left does the on / off road settings).

Thanks for that.
Have noticed some which are black trimmed between the toggles and some which are silver..Are these just trim differences or does this indicate a difference in spec?

Between the toggles are the 3 damper setting switches and the sport button only. Are you saying the switches are silver?
If you mean the surrounding panel is silver on some, this is part of the optional Sport Aluminium Package.

Yes.
Noticed on some that the switches appear silver and some black some cars have 1 tog and the fully specced ones have 2, RH one controlling ride height. I just wasn't sure whether the silver switches / black switches denoted a spec difference or just an internal trim difference. Its sort of starting to make sense. I just want to make sure I buy the very best specced car I can.

If the switches are silver, I think, IIRC, that was on cars with PDCC.

So top spec suspension wise are 2 togs, silver switches denoting PASM and PDCC..?
I am being picky but this is where I live...




Have even bought some 18" wheels for the snow tyres prior to the car!!

They don't all look like that because they don't all have air.

1. Standard car has STEEL and PASM and looks like this. (I have just scanned the GTS brochure for the photo)

2. Some cars had the OPTIONAL AIR which has PASM included. They look like this.

3. Some cars had the PDCC which has to have AIR which has PASM included. They look like this.

458 Thanks for your informed answers.
You have confirmed what I thought

Just have to find the right car now.

Cheers

458 - was referring to that I haven't seen a GTS without air and not many 957 shape GTS with pdcc though I think was introduced 2009.

Would like a Nordic Gold gts, but the last 2 I have seen for sale didn't have air......................
Have an early model turbo with air and wouldn't have one without..
Really do like Nordic Gold, are there many owners on here with that colour.

Isn't it just the earlier cars that have locking diffs and low ratio ?
