Hello. I have 09 997.2 and my version is 1.4. How to update it? I have read and found that there was a cd available back in 2010 that cost under $20 and you can do update yourself. What's new in the latest version? How to update?
Thank you

 

Where did you hear $20 bucks?

Suncoast package includes map update and pcm update to 2.2, but can i just purchase pcm update without maps like i could purchase it before?
Has anyone installed this update from suncoast for $399? What was changed?

 

I doubt is the PCM update offers any new functionality. It most likely just addresses bugs and provides a upgraded interface to the new NAV DVD map that is available.

I upgraded my old PCM2.1 to accept the latest NAV DVD (for that PCM) for close to 300 bucks a few years back and it was money not well spent.

Unless you rely on the NAV to get you around and visit new streets and POI's spend your money elsewhere.

 

I use my google maps on my galaxy nexus. The nav from porsche sucks.

 

Updates should be free from the dealer. Just go to your dealer and ask for the latest updates. I think the latest is 1.4.4.

 

Do you know what is the difference in newer version?

I beg to differ. The nav in the PCM3 works just great and its easy to glace at or see the turn-by-turn in the computer display in the instrument cluster.

You cannot get that type of much lower distraction guidance from a smartphone unless you mount it behind your steering wheel.
