Madlil Posted August 16, 2020 Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 Morning all, On my to do list is a map update, and like others I am contemplating using Lukas off eBay. One question I have before taking the plunge - can anyone that has used the £99 eBay service confirm that speed limit info is still contained/updated within the data files? many thanks Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topradio Posted August 16, 2020 Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 I still get the speed limit display in the MFD with the new maps but I can't confirm that that the data was updated as I can't remember which roads had a higher limit before. However the speed indicated is pretty accurate in most areas. This is a quite old database anyway and many limits will have changed since it was produced, particularly where 30's have been made 20's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madlil Posted August 16, 2020 Report Share Posted August 16, 2020 Thanks @topradio good to know. Going to place an order. Knowing my luck Porsche will release 2020 maps next week. 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madlil Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Ordered the map update off Lukas on eBay on Sunday and the discs and USB drive arrived promptly today. Pleased to report the install went well. I did get an error message (disc write protected?) when installing the first map disc, but just ejected it and reloaded and it started the process. Takes about 2 hours with ignition on in total so recommend anyone doing it uses a battery charger at the same time. Speed limit notification seems improved over my previous 2012 maps with my local roads showing in the display where it was a bit hit and miss before. A good upgrade and massive saving on OPC.

RickLS7 Posted August 19, 2020 Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 I had the same error on disk 1, also ejected and cleaned it and no issues after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The PCM update is to 4.7.3 I think. Didn’t notice any new functionality but as mentioned my speed limit display is now permanently there, before it used to go missing.

Richard Hamilton Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 It depends on the hardware version as to what software version it can be updated to. PCM 3.1 (Version 1) was launched in 2010 for Panamera including new features such as a new display, 3D Navigation, mapping in the Instrument Cluster, Bluetooth Audio streaming, and the Burmester Surround Sound system. During 2010 MY, version 2 was released for Panamera including a revised iPod / Multimedia interface. During 2012 MY, version 3 was released for all variants including improved hardware, Start Screen support, and HD Radio. During 2013 MY, version 4 was released for all variants including new features such as Aha Radio (Online Services), Jukebox, and Email / Text. Hardware version 3 can (currently) be updated to software version V3.43. Hardware version 4 can be updated to software version V4.76. As an aside: PCM 3.0 was launched in 2009 for Sports-cars and Cayenne. During 2011 MY, hardware version 2 was released for Sports-cars with improvements in mapping, navigation, and internal hardware. Hardware version 2 can be updated to software version 2.25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
