I’m looking at first gen GT4s, 2015/16 and have found out that rear parking sensors weren’t even an option on these early cars for some reason. I was talking to an OPC this week and they are prepping one and actually removing an aftermarket add on as “we can only retail cars to factory spec”. I really don’t want one without these as you can’t see a thing out the back… Anyone know when these became an option ? Cheers

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.

They were never an option on the 981 GT4’s or Spyders as far as I know, only became available on the 718’s
400SE Dave said: They were never an option on the 981 GT4’s or Spyders as far as I know, only became available on the 718’s That's correct. 981 Spyder had the option of a reversing camera active in the PCM. I can't seen why Porsche would not allow the OE reversing camera to be fitted to a 981GT4 and operate under the same principle? A lot of owners in the US have gone done the 3rd party rear camera/PCM route but they don't seem to bother with OPC warranty as much as we do.
That’s weird why would they do that, can’t be weight surely? Ah well, thanks for the info, another tick in the “get a new GTS” box
