Default PCM Software Upgrade

I was driving to have breakfast this (22 Panamera GTS) morning with a friend when my PCM quit working, nothing but a blank screen.

I figured that much like computers turning it off and back on and all would be fine. Ate breakfast and started the car, still no PCM.

Called the dealer and they said bring it in. When I got there they checked the VIN and said they had just been notified this morning of a software update that was released this morning. I was skeptical but left the car. They called in about 3 hours and said it was ready to go.

Service ticket says they installed software update 9Y2909000AF.

Works fine again.

The PCM is basically a small computer now. They can be susceptible to software issues or blue screens like normal computers. My PCM has issues with car play randomly until I updated the software.
