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.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

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

Sorry havent been abe to sit in one with PCM2 yet, indie today said they dont do post codes and are crap....I wondered if those who use the PCM2 in anger can tell me if it is actually any good as satnav system, or am I just as well sticking me tomtom in one? thanks Mark Migration info.

POST 2Original post

PCM2 does'nt use post codes - but as for crap? I'd have to disagree - mines been faultless in the almost 2 years I've had it, unlike the TomTom - renamed Sh*teSh*ite I had it on a PDA that after 2 upgrades (that were in fact severe downgrades) and after countless email traffic with their customer service lot,I gave up the ghost with. Like all technology, its out of date as they are bolting it in. Most on here agree that the retro fitting anything to do with PCM2 is a massive waste of money. If your car ticks all the right boxes and doesnt have PCM2, then there are brilliant aftermarket products at a fraction of the Porsche prices Migration info. Legacy thread was 76760

POST 3Original post

I have an 06 plate car with PCM 2 I think and you can use post codes. However, even the OPC didn't know how to use it and had to phone Germany.... When you are entering data in 'town' type the post code instead of town name. It doesn't run to the full, I think it will let you go as far as GU21 1.... but not any further so will get you to the locality. not great but it does work to an extent. Migration info.
