@718socal did you ever do Power Steering Plus coding on PIWIS for anyone? Enabling that feature alone almost paid for my Launch X431 purchase. Its not a huge difference but happy with how it behaves so I'm leaving it enabled. Launch coding below, should be similar for PIWIS...
Electric Power Steering: Coding value--Coding--Servotronic = 1 {Default: Inactive}
Actually loving the white gauges hack even without lit needles, makes the cluster look so much more legible during the day.
Also did you ever find a way to change auto headlight sensitivity - haven't seen anyone report success.

Never activated Power Steering Plus but it can be done with PIWIS. Regarding the headlights there are settings for sensitivity in PIWIS. Someone discovered how to disable/enable DRL maybe there is a setting for a menu option for DRL or Auto headlight sensitivity in the cluster.
DRL can be deactivated in PIWIS or a corresponding menu item can be added to the instrument cluster. See somewhere above.
What I am looking for: I have managed to get DRL to activate only when the engine is started and not during ignition plus (terminal 15). Unfortunately, this only applies to DRL. In darker light conditions, the low beam is switched on directly. I would also like to have this activated only when the engine is started. This still comes on with ignition plus. In short: all lights off until the engine is running. Does anyone have any ideas?

This is probably the best place to ask. I'm getting my hands on PIWIS next week and wondering if there's anything worth coding on the car. I only have one code to update: changing BRAKE SYSTEMS to 450 - CERAMIC—BRAKE.
Have you folks done anything on Cayman GT4 2021?
I don't have a Navigation system, and I'm wondering if this can be activated. Your help is very appreciated.
Thank you in advance

Looking for some help with hardware and getting started here. Had some experience a while back with my programming my Gallardo an more recently for changes to my Bronco, but those were easier to get started with laptop and easier to obtain trustable software. Is there an existing (and recent) thread on how one would go about getting PIWIS 3 setup? Have some extra laptops sitting around so mostly looking for recommended connector to car and software source. Once I'm setup, would be happy to give back to community by helping other PacNW area members.

Contact @rnlst_log for PIWIS. If you go to the first page, you will see a summary of what could be coded. For example Keyfob coding for Boxter/Spyder is there. Good luck

pcm control unit not found
I don't know what I was doing that caused it to stop working, but my PCM (head unit) is unable to load due to an error 11070 on the Piwis. Is there any possible reason for this? I can still display the navigation and phone information on the instrument cluster, but I can still start the PCM and operate the navigation.

Hi everyone, In the 982 GT4, the air fan speed control doesn't remember the last setting, and it always switches on with the ignition. I believe the console does remember the last setting of the AC switch.
If someone knows how to code the fan speed to remember the last setting, please point me to where I can find it in the PIWIS.
Thank you.
