I hope this isn't Isudar under a new name ! No Patt we are talking about the OEM equivalent, PCM 3 is out and sitting in a box in my garage.

Only happened when the engine was on but not linked to revs which was a sigh of relief. Prised off the intake shroud and with a torch I spotted this. 5 mins later leaf retrieved, noise gone. Typically there was mild panic as I had a leaf and also now a bit of sticky tape joining it on the fan 🫣 Luckily managed to convince it to stick back on my stick again 🙂👍 Sticky stick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringmaster999 Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 Had the annual deep clean and inspection of the CarPro Ceramic Finiest coating that was applied two years ago. All good and looking nice and shiny for my trip over to the Nurburgring tomorrow stopping in Bruges tomorrow night before arriving at the Ring for Wednesday and Thursday Tourist drives in the evening 👍 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alank Posted September 5, 2022 Report Share Posted September 5, 2022 renewed my warranty, again, got 18 months for price of 12, plus they have given me Battery cover, up to £300, for 2 yrs. A bit of peace of mind, and my battery is 9 yrs old, but still going strong (probably shouldn't have said that ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping you’ll do a YT upload on the install, this could be a great OEM+ upgrade for us 981 owners. great job either way if you have made it work properly 👍😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringmaster999 Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Taken the lip of the front of the car. It’s a bloody pain with the x73 suspension and I was fed up of it grounding everywhere 😂😂Especially as the car park in Bruges was underground and accessed by a steep ramp. Nightmare 😬😳😂👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it working perfectly and even discovered the GSM antenna which was installed in my car works as a dab aerial yesterday so no silly sticker aerials needed. I can't wait to see the reaction at the dealer when I go for my service. I wonder if I will get an advisory for it 🤣 Edited September 7, 2022 by daz05 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daz05 Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 The only thing I can't get working is the nav map display on the cluster, there's a problem with the resolution but the instructions display on the cluster. You can deselect the map in the options or code it out anyway so no big deal as carplay and Android auto won't display on the newer generation of cars either. It could be the cable needs to be updated or it could be that I can buy a different screen for the cluster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
