Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All... I have bought a 2002 911 carrera 4 It has what i believe is a PCM 1 unit in it. It has a cassette player in the head/screen unit, and a seperate CD drive below for the Nav CD, along with a multi CD unit under the hood... The Telephone is the handset type on a cord, mounted to the left of the unit. 2 questions, Firstly is it legal to use this? I am unclear as to the legalities of dialing and holding?? I know you can hold such things as dictaphones etc.... and I know you can dial on a phone if it is mounted on the dash.. Secondly, Which Sim do i need, I have read somewhere that only O2 or Vodafone will work due to only having support for Analog, and not digital? I just tried an Orange sim, I got signal but the phone was crossed out? Any help would be appreciated Regards Gary

POST 2Original post

Yes, PCM1 as you correctly describe is Vodaphone and O2 only.... Its a telephone= its illegal to use whilst driving- unless hands free. garyw

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That doesnt really help much... My car is an 2002, so really should be a 16bit... but reading further down the post it seems that if I have a seperate CD drive (i do), then its 8 bit??

POST 6Original post

In this post: http://www.porscheclubgbforum.com/fb.asp?m=563953 I am referring to your specific car. Yes, you have PCM1, and yes, it it 16-bit. Won't make any difference to the SIM card compatibility though, I'm afraid.

POST 7Original post

Buy a PAYG sim card from O2 or Vodafone and divert calls from your normal phone to that sim card while you're in the car.(£10) ... or buy one of these: http://www.kenwood-electronics.co.uk/products/car/navigation/all_in_one/DNX5260BT/ (£a bit more)

ASDA mobile Sim will work also, 50p last time I check.
