Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I used a guy not that far from me last year to upgrade a couple of mine, well worth the cost to me for a professional service

Speak to your local car audio specialist IMO - worth the extra cost of fitting for someone who knows what they're doing, what system to recommend/what's compatible, and won't cause damage to the car.

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.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'll soon be the owner of a 2014 Cayman 981S (my first Porsche!). It has the standard radio fitted and I was wondering what is the best upgrade. I want DAB, google maps on my iPhone...and not a lot else really. I don't use my phone while driving (not even hands-free).

POST 2Original post

It won't be possible to add DAB without possibly an aftermarket solution. The aerials are - I believe - built into the windscreen glass as the sat nav aerials are For CarPlay then you need one of those Chinese chips which you connect the PCM board to. Also, congrats on the car!

Edited by Jim1064 on Wednesday 14th January 19:44 Trust pilot gives an average review score of 1.6 over their whole range, based on 274 reviews, the vast majority of which (77%) were 1-star. I think that says it all.

Speak to your local car audio specialist IMO - worth the extra cost of fitting for someone who knows what they're doing, what system to recommend/what's compatible, and won't cause damage to the car. Porsches aren't rare so they should have experience of upgrading that kind of unit. I used a guy not that far from me last year to upgrade a couple of mine, well worth the cost to me for a professional service
