Looks like most people either live with what you've got, or update it so Carplay is possible and you can then use third party apps like Waze etc:

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.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello all, I've lost the traffic information (the blue arrows denoting congestion/queues) on the map screens. This happened after I updated the map on my UK 2013 991 4S running PCM3.1 using data bought from satnavshop.co.uk. Came on several USB sticks with good instructions/video. The installation upgraded PCM 3.1 from V4.73 to V4.76 then updated the map. Very easy, if time consuming, and all seems fine except that the traffic information is no longer shown. I can't find anything in the options to control this and I've contacted satnavshop.co.uk but they can offer no help on this specific issue. Not sure if I'm missing something or I need to toggle a setting but I can't find anything. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks, Sam

Realtime traffic info is a subscription service - are you sure your subs haven't been paid? See page 3: https://connect-store-static01.porsche.com/medias/...

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the link. I have a much older version of PCM - Porsche Connect services didn't exist when I got the car back in 2013. PCM 3.1 as far as I'm aware doesn't connect to Porsche Connect. But shouldn't need to as I've had traffic information for the last ten years with no "external" link. At least I did have before the upgrade... I understand PCM 3.1 gets its traffic information from the FM/DAB radio.
