PCM3.0 Bluetooth phone startup connection time

When I startup my 2009 (997,2) C4S, it takes 2~3 minutes after my phone connects to PCM3.0 for the phone sound to work. i.e. If I try to make a call as soon as the phone connects to PCM, I cannot hear any sound nor can the counterpart hear my voice. After 2~3 minutes, phone works fine.

During the last 3 years, I've changed phones a number of times (samsung, iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S) so I'm sure its not a phone issue.

Have any of you come across this ?

Is your phonebook visible at this time?

What settings do you have in your pcm in regards to updating the phonebook from your phone?

I had a similar problem with my 09 C2S. I never found the problem. When I switched to my 11 GTS with the same phone I never had the problem again.

Wow.!! so i'm not alone out there! ... It may be a we're using a lower firmware version of 3.0 (I think there's a patch number or a minor version number somewhere) then the one in the newer panameras or panamera may be using a completely new version of PCM

Does anyone know the current or latest PCM3.0 patch version and how to upgrade with 2009 cars with earlier firmware versions?

I need to check but I think I remember the phone book being up and accessible and I know I've set my phone book system to auto sync.

why? Is there something with the phone book setup?

Thanks

I think it's an iOS 6 thing. Lots of people are having Bluetooth pairing problems. My iPhone 5 with this latest iOS won't pair with ANYTHING.

Then its definitely an iPhone 5 problem.

The phonebook might delay things if you are one of those folks with a thousand+ entries in your phonebook that needs to be synced.

Wouldn't it be nice if Porsche tested their PCM systems as thoroughly as they do their cars prior to putting them on the market?

I think they tested it just fine against the phones and OS versions that were out there 'at the time the car was designed/produced'.

The car plays just fine with iOS 6.0.1 and iOS 5.x on a iPhone 4S.

Minok.. not saying that it doesn't work... it works fine when after the initial 3 minutes of silence..

I'd love to test with other non-iphones... anyone with same symptoms on Galaxys?
