if you have pcm 2.0 you have nav which works via cd. pcm 2.1 works via dvd and has a seperate player which sits under the passenger seat. pcm 2.0 vehicles have a storage drawer under the seat. here's the link to explain extended nav. its enabled via the dealer using the piwis tester. software is @ $200

I have a 2005 CTT with 2.1 PCM with DVD. I did not have the compass on the left hand side of speedo. I upgraded to a new pcm with the phone buttons, as my old one did not have them, and I wanted to get mobridge.
WHen I got my new to me, used PCM and hooked it up ... the compass was there on the dash. I think the new pcm had the programing.

edit/update.......just looked at an 06 cayenne 's' with pcm 2.1. it has compass on the cluster and no magnetic field sensor under the rear seat. so yeah you need the software from porsche and then you need to go to your local dealer and get them to enable 'compass' in the pcm

i'll still look into this a bit more. from what i gather pcm 2.1 displays the compass on the cluster.

I have the display on mine, however, it is my understanding that there is an optional compass that allows for very fine adjustments to accomodate different magnetic areas of the world. Isn't there a standard one like mine and a more sophisticated one?

hmmm......tempting. i don't know if i'd be happy to splice into the CAN wiring. perhaps i'll just wait until a PCM 2.1 comes up for sale. i already have the dvd nav drive
