  1. Panamera Talk
    Hi there, hoping someone has experienced this before and can help me :) --2014 Panamera Turbo S-- Couple of weeks back my grandson was in the back and turned on the offside video screen and this flipped the audio in the car, and it came up on the front panel at the bottom in blue with something...

    Last week my PCM (3.1, 2014 Cayman S) was on the fritz. The Nav stopped working, and the unit kept rebooting every 5-10 minutes. I tried "resetting" it by pulling the fuse for 30 minutes or so, but that didn't resolve the issue. I then tried re-applying the 4.76 update via the DVD, but the...

    Hi all, I'd like to add a backup camera and sensors to my 2013 981 S. I'm reading/finding that my PCM 3.1 can't be upgraded to software version 4.xx or greater, for the aftermarket solutions I'm finding. I have PCM system version 3.41 (that I believe can only be upgraded to something like...

    Looking for PCM 3.1 update disc to go from 4.73 to 4.76 (P/N WKD95280017) Several places list this disc for $20 but it appears to be sold out everywhere and my local dealer isn't even able to order it from Porsche. It doesn't seem to be locked to the car at all so if you have it and have...

    I'm about to start the process of retro fitting CarPlay to my PCM in my 981. It's supposed to be a 7hr job, so I'm guessing it's going to take me two days. It probably means having the PCM out of the car for most of those days. But I have some appointments / chauffeuring to go to... Is it...
  7. 718 Cayman/Boxster Porsche (982) Chat 2017-Now
    I'm purchasing a 2017 718 BB without the PCM. Does anyone know if Porsche changed the PCM for the 718? Hope I'm using the correct terms.
  8. 981 Cayman/Boxster Problems & Complaints 2013-2016
    Hello All, I've been searching hi and low to see if anyone has had the same problem with their PCM3 I sync my Iphone to the PCM via bluetooth and I have no issues, but for music I also plug the phone in via the USB port and a lightening cable. The PCM picks up the Iphone as an "IPOD", I...

    I was contacted by a Porsche owner in Germany that has read the P9 forum threads on swapping out the CDR31 for a PCM. His situation is unique to anything I've read about on our forums, and I am including his email to me below in hopes someone else will be able to offer better suggestions that I...
  10. 718 Cayman/Boxster Porsche (982) Chat 2017-Now
    Hi, every time I get into my car, PCM automatically plays the first song on my phone from Apple Music... every single day. I click stop / pause on the song every time, and what makes it worse, if I make a phone call, the song will automatically start playing again (what the f*ck is that about)...

    Hi all, I try to look for answers in the 718 forum but didn't find it so I hope I am not double posting. I went into the dealership this weekend to look for a new 718 with Nav, instead they have a slightly used (3K miles) 718 that fits all my requirements exception it doesn't come with PCM...

    Vehicle is a 987.2 Cayman with Sound Package Plus. I'm looking to replace my PCM 3.0 head unit (which is running firmware v2.24). I've seen a lot of models and unsure which one to get. The fit guide on Pioneer's website doesn't give too much of any idea of what size I should look for. I'm...

    As Dension's primary US distributor to the Porsche market, we sometimes receive special incentives on our larger orders. We were just offered a special for our incoming shipment of Dension 500SBT units (GW52MO2) for PCM 2.1 equipped 997/987/Cayman/Cayenne models and want to pass along the...

    Is this a known v4.76 issue? BT Aux (and Aha) normally connect fine. However, if the ignition is turned off (and door opened etc) then back on after a short period it appears PCM does not bother to try and connect the BT media audio after that short cycle. Can make it connect by going into...

    I just replaced my PCM with an Apple CarPlay/Andriod Auto head unit. Should I keep the old PCM or try to sell it on eBay? I'm thinking the market would be anyone who has a broken PCM and wants parts to get it working, but not pay for a new unit from the factory. On the other hand, perhaps I...
  16. 981 Cayman/Boxster Problems & Complaints 2013-2016
    So my PCM stopped connecting with my iPhone 8 via bluetooth. I disconnected the phone, forgot the PCM and reconnected. Problem persisted!:crazy: I then noticed my Nav looked odd and it started freezing? My PCM then rebooted itself which then continued at about 8 - 10 minute intervals. I took the...

    The PCM in my 2010 Cayman S with Bose and Navigation died. It is rebooting over and over and the text is in German. The dealer is quoting $3300 to replace. I'm thinking about going for an aftermarket solution. Any advice?
  18. 987 Cayman/Boxster Electronics 2005-2012
    I'm thinking of replacing my PCM with a headunit, specifically one that supports CarPlay. I like the reviews for the wireless Alpine CarPlay unit, perhaps I will go with that. I will use my existing Bose amp. But what happens to the car related features in the PCM when it's removed? Things...

    I wanted to share the following. My 981 (2013 MY, build date late 2012) has PCM 3.1 w/ software version 3.41 I ordered the "Update CD 08/15" P/N 95280017 Let's get to the conclusion right away - put it in, it offered me to update to 3.43 and it did. Now, what is too bad is I am trying to get...
  20. 981 Cayman/Boxster Electronics 2013-2016
    I’ve had this occasional problem upon startup. The PCM says that I’m calling my phone. Pushing the “hang up” button on the steering wheel does not disconnect. I have to turn off Bluetooth. I’ve rebooted my phone and forgotten the phone on the PCM. Doesn’t happen often, but occasionally. I have...
