Update...
A fellow Renlister sent me and ISO of the update disk and I burned a DVD from it... my PCM would not read it... just hung. So he sent me the original disk. I updated no problem to the highest and last 3.0 version. My bugs apparently are gone... and I think the systems runs a tad faster. I won't post his name so he won't be bugged, but the update from a Porsche disk worked for me with my SSD.

Huh, interesting: you were able to upgrade to the 2.x software? Which exact version, and does the nav still work?
I was under the impression that to get 2.x working on the earlier systems, you needed to update the maps and that required dealer coding.

Ah, got it, that makes sense. Yeah, I uploaded that doc.
I'm actually reasonably sure even the Version 1 hardware can be upgraded to the 2.X software. But you have to also update the maps at the same time, or the nav stops working. And the map update requires coding.
See the note at the bottom of page 8.
