Further to my initial post, I have now bought the dual din PCCM+ from my dealer - whatever issues prevented them from selling me one a few months ago have since been resolved and once my ‘01 C4 comes back from Elephant Racing (its getting the safari treatment - suspension, lights, bars…) I’m going to have it installed - has anyone else learned anymore about the PCCM+ issue as I still can’t get a full answer as to what was up other than it was software related.
I’m not sure whether Porsche were able to rectify those cars and reset the odometer to the correct mileage or not but that’s a pretty big issue!

Not sure if you’re still interested but the issue according to my dealer in Australia was that when the PCCM+ was installed in some 996 and 986s, it would result in the odometer being reset to 0km / 0miles. Lol.

Haha!
Mine resets my trip odometer frequently but not the primary! I had heard that this could be corrected at a porsche dealership but that it was significantly more expensive if you did not have them install the unit there originally. Not sure if that is true or not.

I have a PCCM that just arrived from a dealer and then after installing it can't do anything with it as if you breathe on the radio it shuts off likes its moving with the nanny screen. It has latest firmware so can't shut off warning. I really like the unit but can't even enter an address.

The onboard maps with nav work fine. I looked at the amount of satellites and had 10 or so green. Also checked in the hidden menu for the # of satellites and they were showing there also. It seems as soon as the unit shakes just a little it pops up the message. Its a B1 unit with latest firmware so can't turn off NHTSA in hidden menu.

Im working fine. You can't bench test it. When its mounted all works great and I can change the settings. If the car is moving though down the road settings is unavilable as is designed. I use car play on it now, but do wish the traffic worked on the built in nav as a backup. Its only a europe thing. Its built on android and I tried to turn on wifi but didn't work. Ill have to dig around again on what other potential android behind the scene stuff might work
