Expert Answers about Porsche Cayenne


  • Trailer Hitch Compatibility with 2005 Porsche Cayenne
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 13220 is the only confirmed fit we have for your 2005 Porsche Cayenne. Although this hitch is confirmed to fit other models, the other models are not confirmed to fit with your bumper. The Draw-Tite hitch # 75950 has not been tested on your vehicle according to the manufacturer so I cannot confirm the fit. There are support parts of the hitch that stick out differently than the Curt Hitch so it would be a gamble but it may...

  • Why Does Curt Trailer Hitch Have Lower Rating Than Towing Capacity of 2006 Porsche Cayenne
  • Usually when a trailer hitch capacity doesn't quite match up to the limits of the vehicle it's designed to fit, it's because it's also a fit for other vehicles that have a different tow rating. I wish I had a better answer for you, but the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch # 13220 does list a 6,000 pound towing capacity and I can't recommend going over this limit. These hitches do likely have a safety margin in place with regards to their listed ratings (which I think you alluded to), but...

  • Comparing Curt Universal 4-Way Flat Powered Modules For a 2013 Porsche Cayenne
  • The Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 comes with their standard powered module. They step up to the Curt Upgraded Circuit Protected Powered Tail Light Converter # C59496 which has a upgraded module that helps protects against overvolt, ESD, and short-circuits. All the powered harnesses will pull a small amount of power even when the vehicle is off. This power is needed to monitor the wiring spliced into the tail lights so it knows when the tail lights are activated. If the power...

  • Does Draw Tite Hitch for 2017 Porsce Cayenne Have Deep Enough Hitch Pin for Carrying Bike Rack
  • Sounds like you are concerned about the depth of the pin hole of the Draw Tite hitch part # 75950 to make sure it's going to fit your bike rack. I can assure you that the depth of the pin hole on this hitch will allow it to work great with any bike rack designed for 2 inch hitches. The shallow hitch pin issue that prevents bike racks from installing in hitches is related to Subaru OEM 1-1/4 inch hitches. Draw Tite does a really good job making sure their hitches work with all standard hitch...

  • How To Get A 5 Way Flat Connector And Hitch Receiver On A 2013 Porsche Cayenne
  • For a hitch receiver I suggest the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75950. It has a 750 pound max tongue weight and a 7,500 pound gross trailer weight. It is a bolt on, no drilling, install that takes about 1-1/2 hours to install. For your wire harness I recommend the Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness with Installation Kit # 119250KIT to give you a connection then use the Curt Trailer Connector Adapter - 4-Way Flat to 5-Way...

  • 2004 Porsche Cayenne S Brake Controller Recommendation
  • Since hardwiring a brake controller to a 2004 Porsche Cayenne can be a bit complicated (see FAQ link), your best option would be the RF brake controller part # TK94FR. This only requires the 12 volt power circuit of the 7-way be completed. This is the pin on the 5:00 position. It will need to have voltage at all times.

  • Best Roof Rack Recommendation for 2012 Porsche Cayenne Turbo with Raised Roof Rails
  • The best choice for a low noise roof rack for your 2012 Porsche Cayenne would be the Thule Aeroblade Edge roof rack part numbers # TH7503-TH7503 the shapes of these bars were designed to create the least amount of wind noise possible, and since the bars do not extend past the feet of the rack that's less bar to create noise and it allows them to sit lower as well. Being lower means they are even less in the wind than the higher bars.

  • 4-Way Trailer Wiring Connector Recommendation for 2015 Porsche Cayenne
  • To install a 4-way on your 2015 Porsche Cayenne I recommend the ZCI kit part # 119250KIT as it installs without any splicing. 4-ways don't have doors so in case you have a 7-way and need an adapter to give you a 4-way you'd want the # PK12716.

  • Re-Wiring Furrion Camera System to Running Lights Circuit
  • The best way to locate the running lights circuit wire on your trailer is to simply use a circuit tester like # PTW2979 on the wiring behind one of the tail light assemblies. When the trailer's hooked up to the vehicle and you have the running lights activated test each of the wires to see which one is carrying power. Then it's just a matter of running the power wire from the Furrion Camera System # FOS43TASF to this wire using some butt connectors like # DW05743-5. This will make it...

  • What Setup Do I Need to Install a Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack on My 2005 Porsche Cayenne?
  • I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars - Aluminum - 58" Long x 47" Wide # RR42115BF does require crossbars, but it is not compatible with HD crossbars. With that being said, we do carry the Rhino Rack Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 that have a maximum weight capacity of 175 - pounds when mounted on your 2005 Porsche Cayenne. This is the exact weight rating as the Rhino-Rack HD bars # RB1250B-2. For a compatible roof rack with...

  • Installing the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 on a 2016 Porsche Cayenne
  • What we have found is that sometimes when installing the Prodigy P3 # 90195 on a 2005-Current Porsche Cayenne there are times when the display of the P3 may become erratic. We recommend installing a 12V normally open relay to fix this issue. You don't necessarily have to install the relay, but it will help to prevent the screen on your P3 from doing goofy things. Unfortunately we do not yet have a video of the relay being installed, but I have attached a helpful article and some pictures...

  • Will the Stealth Hitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver Fit a 2019 Porsche Cayenne Hybrid
  • I checked with Stealth Hitches and the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit part # SH37FRT is a confirmed fit for the 2019 Porsche Cayenne Hybrid. The Stealth Hitch is an excellent option which does not require any permanent modifications such as cutting, trimming or drilling. The best part of all, it has a removable receiver tube so the hitch will not be noticeable once installed. It also comes with everything you need so you will be ready to go once it arrives.

  • Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2009 Porsche Cayenne
  • The trunk mounted bike rack that I would recommend as being the best for the 2009 Porsche Cayenne would be the Thule OutWay Bike Carrier # TH56BV.

  • Trailer Connector Adapter to Fix Bulb Out Sensor of 2014 Porsche Cayenne and Trailer with LED Lights
  • I am not sure what the strange connector is on your 2014 Porsche Cayenne but it should have the standard 7-Way blade style on it. Adapter # C57003 is designed to solve that bulb out issue. But if your trailer does not have the 7-Way blade style connector then in addition to this adapter you would need either another adapter or replace the 7-Way output end of the above adapter with the correct vehicle side connector that is compatible with your trailer. So that begs the questions: what...

  • Cargo Basket That Fits Yakima Crossbars on Porsche Cayenne
  • There is a rooftop basket that will work for you, but the Inno Shaper 80 will not fit the Yakima channels. Instead, a great rooftop cargo basket option that will work for you is the Thule Canyon XT Roof Cargo Basket # TH859XT. This basket has U-bolts which you can clamp around the bars and it will give you a carrier that measures 49" long x 40" wide x 6" tall and has a fairing to reduce the wind noise. It can be locked onto your rails with the One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400.
