2009 Carrera C4S - cannot get iPhone 7 to pair!
I just purchased a 2009 C4S with Factory Installed Bluetooth, but after too many attempts - I simply cannot get the car to find my phone and pair. The first time I attempted it, my phone was found - 4 digit code was shown and entered but it never paired (it was just "stuck" at this stage). Now, it doesn't even find my phone when I search for a new device.
Does anyone have any advice / had a similar experience?

Same thing with my 2009 C2 - have never been able to pair my iPhone. I tried it once when I was sitting at a stop light and it wanted to pair with a Blackberry in one of the adjacent cars but not my phone. Go figure. I’ve given up.

I have 2009 Turbo and have not been able to sync my mine either. I think my original PCM has been changed as the XM radio id is different than what XM radio has attached to the Vin# of my car

Thanks for taking the time to reply! If I get it to work, I will certainly update this thread but it sounds like I am in the market for a new Bluetooth Headset...

I'm connecting my iPhone 7 Plus without any issue to my 2009 C4S PCM3.0 via BT.
I believe I'm running the latest FW (update done by Porsche Geneva March of last year).
Have not tried my iPhone X yet but should not make any difference I believe

I was wondering if there was a PCM update that could be installed - I will make an inquiry.

The 2009 C4S I have since 2009 had paired with every iPhone I had, and currently iPhone 6S Plus is working perfectly.

I have an iPhone X paired and functional with my 997.2 C4S. If there is a link or instructions on how or where to get the PCM firmware version/level I can post version. For those with pairing issues has anyone tried restarting the phone and the car. Then trying to pair again. This process worked for my friends pioneer.
