Default 2023 PCM version 6

Has anyone been able to download the new digital manual for the upgraded PCM Version 6 ?
The “Good To Know” app does not download the newest version. Is there another source for the manual? My 2023 TTS made it to the dealer for prep PPF so I don’t have access to the on board digital manual to review all the changes.

The new car only had two USB type 3 sockets in the storage compartment between the seats. No longer are there sockets for SD chips! I have been using SD chips in my 2021 old version PCM and they work fine. Is there on board storage?

thanks
sportsman

I downloaded the app onto my phone and when I tried to open it, the app says it is not available in my country (USA). Makes no sense to me -I have a new 23.

There are two USB C ports in the center console. There are no SD ports.

I downloaded the manual for my 911 using the ‘My Porsche’ App. Your car will be presented within the App, and the Manual for it may be downloaded there. Select ‘Details’ and then ‘Manual’.

thanks for the feedback

I did download the manual into the My Porsche, but there Is only a brief description of the CarPlay application. The detailed digital manual is not included!

I don’t know where to look next. Has anyone found the digital manual for the new PCM 6?

thanks

When was the PCM updated most recently? I have a 992T on order, build date of March 17th. Just curious if I will be getting whats out there now, or if anyone has any insights on changes or updates to the system at all by end of Q1 2023

OP: If you are looking for a description of the features and operation of Apple CarPlay, you will find that from Apple or variously on YouTube, not within the manual for operation of PCM6 from Porsche. The manual which I downloaded from within My Porsche has a very complete description of the features and options for PCM6.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Hey Bud, like others have said, on your phone or laptop, open the My Porsche App. You'll see your cars listed there. Where you see your 911, in the upper right corner is the word Details. Touch/click on that, and on the screen it takes you to you'll see 3 tabs at the top; Overview, Functions, Manual. Touch/click Manual and there you go. As far as I know you can only view the digital manual, not download it, (on our phones at least). But I'm technically challenged so don't take that as the Gospel. See the pictures below for some more help while you follow the steps above. And just so you know, you can't access this until you actually have your car and it's been added to your My Porsche App. Hope this helps.

​​​​​​​My phone is being stupid so I'm gonna post the pictures below.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
