Background:

All Macans from 2019 equipped with PCM5 system, which has 10.1" wide screen, allow 16:9 display ratio at maximum of 1920x720 resolution HD mode.
on 2022, Macan has made some major interior update :

The parts you touch the most – the steering wheel, gearshift, and center console – have been improved for the 2022 iteration of the Porsche Macan. The most notable change is the new center console, which features haptic elements in lieu of traditional buttons. This allows for a cleaner appearance without sacrificing functionality. The 2022 Macan also sees upgrades to the infotainment system. The Porsche Communication Management (PCM) screen now measures 10.9 inches (0.8 inches larger than last year) and features voice control. The new steering wheel design is derived from the legendary 911, and, when coupled with the reworked gear shifter and center console, make for an interior that’s both more stylish and more ergonomic. As always, a wide array of options are available to upgrade and personalize the interior of your new Porsche Macan.




However, it is very disappointing that PCM still using PCM5 not PCM6 on other model like 2022 Cayenne, 992, Panamera and Taycan

So that CarPlay can still only be displayed on 2/3 of the screen at 800x600 resolution with low DPI setting which made the icon even smaller which is hard to operate




Sadly, the arrow next to the CarPlay won't allow you to extend the CarPlay view to full screen Mode, so the CarPlay still stay as 800x600 size. It is kind of wast on the 10.9" wide screen which suppose to have 16:9 HD 1920x720 resolution and bigger icon size.

Obviously, Porsche has recognised the issue and fixed that on PCM6 system which only available on 2022 Cayenne, Panamera, 992 and Taycan, just not for Macan.



PCM6 with HD CarPlay view


And other downside is that Android auto was not enabled for all Macan since 2016 PCM4, then of course no Android auto on PCM5 either.
That problem has also been fixed on PCM6



Android auto on PCM6


However, we can now make your Macan's CarPlay to utilise the HD wide screen even on PCM5 and also have Android auto enabled as well.



full screen 1772x650


However the normal Full screen is still not using the entire screen display and fully utilise the HD screen size. As you can see the icon size stay the same as 2/3 screen which is still small not easy to operate even on full screen

So we also made the Full HD whole screen which is on 1920x720 resolution with higher DPI setting so that icon size is normal now



Whole screen HD 1920x720


Now even Macan is still using PCM5, but we still can get 1920x720 resolution with larger icon just like PCM6 on other models such as Cayenne, Panamera, 992 and Taycan

More importantly, it also can support the latest Android auto coolwalk on this HD mode








So now, even you have 2022 or 2023 Macan you can have all features that PCM6 have on Porsche's other model.

Luckily it all can be done remotely with simple software installation over internet. Porsche does have very restricted warranty policies that is why we have made our mod very unique way. The mod on just application level which will be fully invisible to any dealers diagnostic tool.

All you need to have:


1. Computer

2. USB Ethernet adapter

3. Ethernet cable

4. USB flash drive

5. USB A to C adapter as your car has usb-c ports

Then we can take care the rest to do all remotely for you to get your Macan upgraded

This is a great mod. I had Innovativesoft do this for me on a 2022 GTS. A couple of other comments:

Computer probably should be a laptop since you don't want to lug around a desktop.
His programming uses Windows.
I used a MacAir running Windows on Parallels - a little more complicated but it worked.

As I previously said this works great. I've had my car in for service which included an OTA software update and the OTA didn't affect the PCM mod at all.

How long ago did you get this software update? Any notable things to consider?

If CarPlay takes up the whole screen in the 22 Macan how can one access the PCM functions? There are no physical buttons.

also why was innovative soft banned in the macan forums?

Silversun262

Good questions. Where did you see them banned?

Touch the Porsche icon from the CarPlay meno and it takes you back to the PCM menu.

Installed 8/17/22 - no issues - works flawlessly.

the reason we got banned on macan forum is because we have revealed too much technical inside so that won’t let people to make wrong choice. Then obviously, it has touched someone else cake, and more ridiculously, if you try to make any CarPlay full screen or anything related to it on that forum now, you will get banned warning.

And few of my customers got banned just because they want to share the experience over there

Raymond just finished doing an HD Android Auto install on my 2022 Macan after already having done one for me on a Cayenne. Both work well and I'm very happy with the results. You should have zero reservations about working with Raymond (Innovativesoft).
