Might be old news, but thought I�d post anyway. My son has a 996 in the UK. Just got radio, PCM, or whatever they call it in this gen, upgraded. It�s super nice and apparently developed by the factory. They move AC/heat down and delete the CD player. Wish they offered this for a 981�

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.

Yeah those are what they call the PCCM+. About 2 grand all in, though you can find imitations on AliExpress that essentially do the same (and IMHO look better) for 1/6th of the money. Pretty sure there are solutions to add CarPlay to the 981 platform
I might be the only one that doesnt like the PCCM+ it looks outdated and for the price, you can get a newer unit with better options and no *****, That being said if owners are putting in double dins into 2003-2004 with the anooying most system, I am pretty sure a car play system can go in yours. Check crutchfield and they will tell you what units fit your 981 https://www.crutchfield.com/car/outfitmycar/mycar.aspx this is only for reference as they have showed that a double din doesnt fit my 996.2 and thats wrong

I'm not a fan either because I'm getting old and I added a back up camera to my much cheaper double din unit.
I got a GTA Carplay module for my 958.2 Cayenne. Works well. https://www.gtacarkits.com/product/w...nne-2011-2016/

Wrong forum. That said, and IMHO, you should have went with the Mr12Volt system. Better sound and support right here on the forum.

Yeah, I made the original post.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
