PCM ..... Heh Its working flawlessly :)

[ejcintr]

Most of the threads on this forum are usually complaints... So I wanted to state ever since I got the update that allowed the downloading of the software that monitored the battery... My PCM has been operating flawlessly... no more blue spinning circles of death requiring the two finger salute or going into the fuse box to disconnect the PCM to force a hard boot (and several trips to the dealership to try and fix)... now I might be jinxing myself... but I have had a fully functional PCM for over 4 months now with no issues... made a car whose driving dynamics I loved but hated the PCM software even better. Now is the PCM perfect compared to the competitors- no- but I am very happy that it for the first time in over 4 years of ownership not something that I dread looking at to see if it would come up properly when I start the car.. so I guess kudos to Porsche ( though I wish it had not taken 4 years to have something you take for granted in other cars to work properly).

I‘d love to tell the same story and if I rewind back 3 months I probably would. But unfortunately I can‘t and have to wait til Porsche fixes the satnav.

Like @Brombaer1971, I was with you on that, @ejcintr. The update that fixed yours actually broke mine. Aside from the satnav issue, I really like PCM 6. Simple interface, more than enough info on the screens, and fast enough. Even as a 90s kid, I’m not the type who needs “fun” infotainment features or constant updates for new gimmicks.

I looked at that navigation issues thread.. for some reason it looks like its only happening in europe.. doesn't seem people from North America are experiencing the satnav issue- hope it gets fixed soon.

I got an OTA PCM update for my 2021 4S last week and I can confirm that the PCM has become significantly snappier ever since. Even the phone calls go through almost immediately - it took like 2-3 seconds before the update. Don't know if it's the same update you are talking about here, but I wanted to share my experience anyway.
