after reading through the site and picking up some valuable information - thanks guys - I now started to wonder what model I actually bought ...

 

all documents make me believe its a 2007, 3.6 v6, tiptronic - so I'd think its a my08, but if I compare the standard features from the my 2008 fact book - its seems to differ on certain bits - eg cruise control (missing on mine) ...

 

it just highlighted as I was looking for information on fitting in bluetooth to the pcm 2.1 dvd and while I was browsing some of the information on here ...

 

does the standard feature set for US and UK (mine) differ or could someone explain this? I tried checking the option codes but some aren't referenced either ...

 

any hints on this are highly appreciated ...

 

cheers

Only the VIN# can tell for sure if the car is an 06 or an 08, the 08 should use a DFI engine, if i remember correctly.

thanks for your response, the VIN says its manufacturing year is 2008 - however it was registered 07/07 - so that made me believe its indeed a my08 - looking at the 2008 fact book standard components reveals that it doesn't have some of those - hence I wonder now and my question ... I also think the non-facelift model prior to mine didn't come as a 3.6 V6 ... just wondering if there were different "standard" components to come with it

 

Porsche Cayenne

Model 9PA - Manufacture Year 2008

SUV (RoW spec)

3.6-Ltr

Your car is a model year 2008 and is a DFI engine.

The rest of your specs are in the return PM I sent. Enjoy...

thanks mate, highly appreciated :thumbup:

but I still wonder - why there seems to be a difference to what seems to be standard on the my08 but isn't inlcuded on mine ..

 

never mind - I still enjoy it ...  :drive:
