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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Just wondered if there was any way of just adding an ipod connection to the PSM2 system? Didnt really want to replace the system as its fine for the weekend etc but have just invested in the 'apple' way of life.......

POST 2Original post

Impossible to connect an iPod to Porsche Stability Management. [ ] The only real way to connect to PCM2 is with an interface unit which replaces the CD Changer. These are made by several companies, but the Dension Gateway is the most popular. Ashley has one for sale in the For Sale forum, and it also has the Bluetooth adapter for 'phone.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Many Thanks Richard! Sorry, you knew what I meant though [ ] ! I know but I wanted to keep mine as original as possible. Bluetooth would be good but wouldn't I lose the porsche sat nav if I changed it to the Denison Gateway? Dove house where I bought the car from mentioned all the clocks and info was updated via this inbuilt system. How would this fair??

POST 4Original post

No, the satnav will work fine. The only thing you lose is the CD Changer (if fitted). The Dension (and others) use the CDC controls to navigate and control the iPod. The system is a bit quirky to operate, but once you get used to it, it isn't too bad. I have a similar system in my Cayman, made by NAV-TV, but they all work in a similar way.

POST 5Original post

Thanks for the plug Richard, Chris I have just what you need, its brand new box has never been opened. I never got round to fitting it and my car will be moving on soon. I paid £364.80 for the gateway 500 unit and bluetooth phone interface from Dynamic sounds on ebay. I'm open to offers say £250? Ashley

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Ashley, do you have a link to one or model i can google???? As its only a weekend drive in nice weather i still am unsure. Please send details, many thanks Chris

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi Ashley, didnt get any emails?!

POST 9Original post

Did I mention commission? [ ] There are some funny goings-on with the forum email system at the moment. Hopefully they will get to the bottom of the problem soon. Meantime, try PM-ing your email address to Chris.

POST 10Original post

Dension info here Can't seem to PM at the moment either so link above

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
