When Apple Carplay is connected, both the in-car and phone's (google maps/apple maps) navigation systems lose their accuracy. As in, my position on the map is different from the road I actually am on.

Does anyone face this issue?

Yes - this happens on my 911 - with google maps - and with/without car play. Corrects in about 2 min

Has not happened on the Panamera - yet

I have another car (not a Porsche) where I have to use Android Auto and Google maps to navigate, and every once in a while, the same thing happens: the car's position goes off, and as Jonathan said above, it self-corrects after a short time. I believe the quirk lies with Google, and not with the car.

couple of threads I posted earlier, both 2017/2018 specific.

https://rennlist.com/forums/panamera...ts-so-far.html

https://rennlist.com/forums/panamera...e-to-soon.html << hopefully the "headlining" issue will be a simple fix...or could turn out to be one of those ones you think is simple only to be told "yes the fix is replace the whole thing...." fingers crossed looks like it should be solvable without removing too many bits n pieces.

still loving the car to bits and i'm not going to let one little fault stop that have to expect some niggles on new models as an early adopter

PSE (full system, not just the sports tailpipes) now available as an option for base / 4 models. Retrofit should be available soon.. Anyone interested?

I asked my UK Porsche Centre for a quote for sport tailpipes, as they show as available on Tequipment site. They said the parts are not yet available, in UK or Germany.

PSE does not add any BHP, just the sporty noise.

There's some irony. Are they some of the parts made in Romania/eastern bloc?

Indeed and it's a fun sporty noise.
