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.

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

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, I have seen Porsche have released the pcm plus for the 997 which has car play.. great news Any recommendations on where to buy it from and have it fitted? Happy to go to a main dealer but I also think friends Porsche had the first unit. Prices and experience feedback would be great Thanks Pete

POST 2Original post

There is a thread already on here for someone who has recently had it installed. Looks neat, but CarPlay is a wired connection which is pretty naff.

Ok thanks, got the link? As the search comes up with 981 gt4 car play debate?

POST 5Original post

Its brilliant compared to PCM2. The wire for Apple Car Play really not an issue as it charges your phone at same time. Works with steering wheel and dash on 997. Radio crystal clear and hands free telephone much improved. Normally 1500 GBP plus fitting circa two hours labour but there an OPC out there think maybe Leicester doing a special deal at 1250 GBP at the mo.

POST 6Original post

I just had PCCM+ installed on my 987. Very pleased and a huge improvement on the original PCCM unit. Tonbridge OPC did mine. As mentioned, USB connection isn’t as neat as BT, but it does charge the phone. With an 8” lightning or USB-C cable it’s reasonably neat and using Waze gives me speed trap information in France which is useful

Doesn't it rather defeat the object of having Carplay if you still put your phone in a honking great holder?

S600BSB said: I guess they are old cars - I have a 997 - so it looks 'period' having your phone on a holder and a wired connection? Maybe so! For me the main reason I put a modern head unit into my 996 was to neaten up the cabin and get rid of the bolted on phone. Each to their own, I suppose.

POST 12Original post

Isn't it possible to have the wired connection hidden in the glovebox or storage cubby between the seats?. Agree, it doesn't look great to have a wired connection sticking out of the front.
