I have SOC displayed on my PMCC (MY21 car and no updates to PMCC following WMA6 campaign).

However, the stats recorded on My Porsche can be random and incomplete. SOC at start and end is not always populated plus the time axis is completely off by -6 hours which frustrates the hell out of me.

Just remembered I hadn't posted a screenshot of my PMCC settings to see if that helps with SOC display issue.

Thanks for the photo of your settings etc.

Here is a screen shot of my settings. Similar to yours and these have been like this for a year now. PLC communication to the car is enabled and has been also for a year.

I do not have any problems with the time stamps. The charger seems to take that from the WiFi network. would you by any chance have your MyPorsche account registered in say the US rather than the U.K.? ( time difference US to U.K. is six hours, isn’t it).

Thanks but US is +6 and mine is -6 so easy rather than west (Taiwan perhaps).

Time from all sources is correct including on the PMCC (!).

When charging time comes from the car.

I suspect the issue is on the Porsche servers and my region has been set wrong.

I also have PLC to car enabled.

I also noticed on your screen shot that you don't have an option to display battery percent unless I missed it?

Would the US not be -6 (Chicago area) instead of +6 vs the UK?

That is what i thought as well!
And I do have a setting for showing percent of charge in the settings, but nothing is shown on the PMCC display. So like all others it does not seem to work with MY20! Very peculiar since all the settings have been in the PMCC and on the MyPorsche site all along. Have no idea what it will take to get this to work?

Sorry guys, I was having a blonde moment doh!,

i also looked at the screenshots on my phone so missed the percent setting. So it must be MY specific if you have all the latest updates applied to your PMCC.

Just because you're blonde is no reason to apologize. Steve

It's been a few weeks since I got the car back and I have had ZERO issues with the update. The two noticeable additions are the wireless car play (which is really nice) and the ambient lighting that changes with album cover art. Other than that, no noticeable differences and everything works perfect (for now).

I have the new dynamic ambient lighting parameters, however I have never seen my interior
colored LED lights change color after configuring. Does the "album art color match" feature work
with XMSirius radio? What is a working system supposed to look like? Mine just stays a single
color of the last one configured (before turning on "Dynamic color"), never changes color or
intensity.

I haven’t played much with this but I have only seen it work with Apple Music, not even playing from Music app from iPhone. So don’t know about XM will try next time and report.

Dynamic Lighting doesn't seem to work via Bluetooth audio either. Haven't tried over Car Play.

Doesn't work over CarPlay. I just stick to BT. CarPlay sucks anyway.

My car has now been at dealer for 2 weeks for the software update. They say update was successfull but no way at all to log back into the car. They say the car drives just fine, it just won't take a Porsche login anymore. Is this what is called "bricked" here on the forum?

The Macan loaner is nice and was enjoyable in the beginning "for a change", but now it's starting to annoy. I want my sports car back! ? ?

Edit: being without the car for 2 weeks has just made me realize even more how much I love the car and love every minute driving it.

I’m in the same boat. My Gateway module failed and it took over a week for the part to arrive (just came in today from Germany). The Macan S I have as a loaner is a fine car and I’m sure I’d like it a lot more if I hadn’t been utterly spoiled by 9 months in my Taycan. This is the first issue I had with my car - before bringing it in for the software update my car had been flawless. Cannot wait to get it back. Miss my instant power!
