Phone charging
The USB connectors charge the attached device when the car is running. If you leave the device plugged in (My ipod qualifies), it will not charge when the car is idle. With carplay is enable on the phone, the car will accept carplay with one press on the PCM screen. Nice considering Porsche's Nav directions are pretty lame.
the phone stays quite low and out of the way. I use the lever to shift (PDK) quite often and have never had an issue. But then I rest my arm on the arm rest and not on the ashtray area 🤷♂️.
Does anyone have a workaround to charging the phone outside the centre console without the lid crushing the cable? In some of my previous cars there was a little hole to channel the cable through, but that doesn’t look like the case here. When the phone is left inside the centre console it seems to get extremely hot.
