Will inspections not allow you to flash the digital tach? I know canadian dealers are trying to make it harder and more expensive for us to import cars. The stealership charging $2000 is a good way of deterring imports by normal guys like us. Do you have any local brokers that you can pay to have the service done for you? Most brokers get some sort of break from the dealerships. Can you drive to another dealership?

Mind me asking where you bought the car from? Did you import it sight unseen? Price? Shipper that you used? I am curious as I too have been thinking about an 03 S and also a newer 08 Cayenne S for the wife.

Thanks and good luck
