I can't think of anything obvious, and all I can suggest is getting a diagnostic check done, to see if there are any faults recorded.

Ps if you have a smart phone you can forward calls to the Porsche sim and so use your phone hands free (works for me ) that's once its working of course!

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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

My 996 (2003) has the PCM unit with a handset. I have tried an o2 and BT SIM in it and both will make and receive calls EXCEPT I cannot hear anything other than a little bit of hiss when I turn the volume up. Equally if I speak in the car nothing goes to the phone which is st the other end of the call. Also when dialling out I don't get a ringing tone from the phone I am calling. Not essential to have it working but would like to use it if possible. Thanks Chris

POST 2Original post

Chris! I can't think of anything obvious, and all I can suggest is getting a diagnostic check done, to see if there are any faults recorded. If you are anywhere near me (Maidenhead, Berkshire) I would be happy to do it for you. Otherwise, any Porsche Centre or Porsche Specialist will be able to do it for you.

POST 3Original post

Has the radio been out at all, could the connections be dislodged?

POST 5Original post

I have a similar issue with my PCM1 phone. Earlier this years the unit worked fine, now the system sometimes (normally) won't recognise the SIM (made more annoying as getting a compatible SIM was not easy). As it's an old unit that has been taken out a few times my thoughts were to wait until the whole thing packs up and get all the faults fixed at the same time? I don't want to pay-out to get the phone system fixed then have to pay-out again when (inevitably) the Sat Nav screen fails. I am assuming that any repairs to the until will be a few £100 to fix, whatever the fault is? Anyone have any experience of this?

POST 6Original post

Hi, can I also jump in on this post. My 1999 c2 ha a phone system fitted. One where you use to sit a Nokia 8210 on a cradle. You know, the smallest phone. I now have an apple phone. Does anyone know any shortcuts to using the new phone, thanks
