Just bought a 2009 Cayenne with PCM and the universal audio interface. I just got the y-cable today. It works great through PCM, and the iPod charges just fine.

However, when I shut the car off, the iPod still shows on and charging - I'm concerned that it will stay on and drain the battery.

Does the iPod ever shut off? Are there settings that affect it?

ipods do not continuously charge, they achieve 100% state and go into a quiescent state.

Have had an iPod in my Cayenne(s) since 2003 and never ran down the battery

I'm not familiar with your exact set up, but on cars with a true iPod interface (OEM or aftermarket), the iPod goes to 'sleep" a few min. after either the system is shut down or the car is turned off. That function is built into the iPod.
