It's nice to have you back.
Larry was getting a bit 'cranky' without you around.......not to mention the forum is a getting a bit 'infested' with newbies lurking in the underbrush.

..weak
... weak? I think not. my first impulse is to ignore thee..
but since it's late and I'm willing to "bite" on your questions.. here goes:

you're not a business client (that I know of), but I have told a business client they're wrong (customers aren't always right despite the saying) particularly when they are unreasonable, arrogant, or been abusing an employee.

in person? hmmmm, guess it depends. if you're arrogant and appear to not know what you're talking about and droning on .. maybe. If you're 6'10" and 300 muscular pounds? probably not.

but what's your point? humor, even when someone misses it .. is still humor.

p.s. I've been absent for months. some feel that newbies don't adequately search the older threads to get questions answered, I merely re-engaged in a manner most pleasing to the old farts!

Bluetooth? Surely you jest.
Maybe in PCM3.0....depending on my mood.

Always the same FM station...92.5
I have no presets set, and the 92.5 station ?? I have never tuned to ever
The 2 stations are not linked in any way

when it happens, and I push the tuner button...the display switches to the
92.5 FM ?????
push the tuner button again, and it takes me back to the original AM station

weird

m,
Have you by any chance explained this to your Porsche dealer and asked for divine intervention from Peter the Great and/or the Evil Dr. W.?
I happen to know from pesonal experience and meetings that they spend their entire day waiting for the phone to ring so they can help a customer with a problem.
Go ahead, give it a shot, what have you got to lose?
Or, hang around here, laugh at your vehicle purchase decision and have some fun.....
Your choice

Hugs and Kisses from Beyond the Grave,

Well, when you're an orphaned minor instutionalized in a "mental rehabilitation facility" and have no family or friends, I guess you do pick up little habits like that.
But on the other hand, I am able to type at 6 words/minute using only an UNSHARPENED #2 pencil between my teeth while securely fastened down to my comfortable bed.

People who laugh live longer.......at this point I figure I'm not too far away from "immortal cockroach" status........worst case, I'll outlive the Evil Dr. W and Peter the Great.

it would really be nice if you could point us towards where that discussion was and what the solution is because so far nobody’s found it.

Sorry, that did not work. Even made it worse. There is no feature for Traffic announcements in the PCCM+, only Turning off Traffic notifications on the MAP's options.
