Default Sports Chrono app missing in PCM

Hi all, would like to seek for your help. I just collected my 2022 911 GTS with sports chrono and GTS package in Hong Kong. However I don’t see the “sport chrono” app in my PCM (as attached screen shot). I called Porsche to check but they said the model is too new to verify if it is a bug, mistake or something else. And they ask me to TRY to go to the service center and reload the entire system to see if it will appear again. Just wanted to check if other 911 owner out there have the same situation. Thanks. Not sure if it is country limitation or what? But I can access the sport chrono with simple functions in the dashboard.

I don’t see the Android Auto as well. On the other hand. My Apple Car play does not support wireless. It needs to use with the wire strangely.

I am not aware of a sport chrono app in the PCM. Do you have a photo of it somewhere in any Porsche documentation. Also what is the software version on the car?

Thanks for your reply. yes. There you go. I saw it in some of the PCM in other car. So does the manual.




It’s the screen shot from the PCM simulator

I think for PCM 5 you will not have it, I do not think I had it on my 2020 C4S. I do have it on my 2022 Targa 4S which is PCM 6

You will also have it (regardless of PCM) on the display right of the Tach, just scroll and you will see it there and you can start and stop it. (if you do not see it, go into the PCM and make sure it is selected to display).

mine should be PCM 6 and my car model is 2022. I’ve tried to look around in the setting but it doesn’t have anything regarding to sport chrono for me to enable it.

cheers

The SC function on the PCM is only available on the GTS. I had a 982 S with SC and nothing on the PCM. My 991.2 GTS has it on the PCM, albeit in a different style to the OP's 992. Obviously the rest of the SC features are there on non-GTS cars

Doesn't answer the OP's question though. AFAIK, it should be there.

This is not true, my 2022 Targa 4S has the Sports Chrono app on the PCM.

^ do you mean the SC stop watch function, or do you mean the SC track precision functions like the OP posted? AFAIK, that is only available on GT- models. But I stand to be corrected.

Mine looks the same, but without the map (I was in my garage and looked) - I had never went into the app before. Not sure if the map shows up when on a track, as I have all the options on the left, and the right area is blank... So maybe the GT(S) gets the full map and track stuff, but either way you should have the icon for the app in at least PCM 6.0 - I do not recall it in my 2020 992 C4S (PCM 5.0) - but it could have been there.

MY '23 GTS is missing the icon in the PCM as well, I can scroll and access to the right of the tach as described, I have not explored this any more than these observations.
