What have you set your steering wheel and dashboard diamond keys to?

(I’m still waiting on my order to be delivered)
I have one set to sport sound ( on the steering wheel) the other day/night mode

I would like to set up the
Dash - sport sound
Steering wheel - next track
Can anyone tell me how to do this? I have only had my 4S for 10 days, still getting used to it.

In case you want to re-purpose the dash button, you can always get to 360 view by pressing the bottom left of the bottom center display
Wow, thanks

Steering wheel is homelink, dash is sport sound. Don't need 'select next station' because I have my right dash dial set to media and I can scroll through and select songs or sirius stations with the scroll knob. It is so easy to scroll and choose stations and songs this way I'm wondering why everyone isn't doing it??:confused:

Because it has the same problem as other Porsches, it doesn't scroll through favorite stations? (Dunno, I haven't tried, I just assumed it's still the same)

I can see next track being easier just having a button, but I'd rarely use it. Where the ProClip holds my phone, it'd be super easy to hit next track on that also.

Yes, the fact it doesn't scroll through favorites is really an oversight. Can't understand why that isn't an option. I just keep it on Sirius News stations, and I only listen to NPR on FM radio, so that's no problem. For music, it's great, because I have all my songs ripped FLAC onto a 2TB flash drive in the console connected via usbc. I can switch to this, pick a folder from the center console, such as '80's hits', or 'Classical Mix 2', and scroll through and pick whatever I want from this folder. It won't shuffle, which should be an option as well though. With the Burmester I find myself listening to FLAC music most of the time. I find the ability to scroll and choose with the right wheel and adjust volume and on/off with the left very handy. I then use my central screen almost exclusively for apple CarPlay, and there I use Waze when I'm not checking messages or my calendar. Very quick, easy and nowhere near as distracting as looking at a phone.

Because I need this dial to see my consumption when I drive! The left dial on the other hand is totally useless. The consumption screen on the main display is annoying because it is displayed as a list, and not as a grid with all the info on once screen! I also totally dislike album pictures. Some of the pictures at night are way too bright. It is easy to dim it down or add option to switch them off!

When it comes to usability, there is so much, Porsche could improve. :rolleyes:
