  1. I'll tell you the same thing that I tell my stats students. Correlation does not equal causation. Meaning? Just b/c you installed the smarttop, does not mean that one thing caused another.

    I know that in my 996 the interior light stays on when I shut the door and then goes off when I arm the system.

    Also, have you tried any other troubleshoots? Removing the smart top unit and seeing if the occurance still is present? It is easy to point one direction b/c of a recent change but make sure you have exhausted all avenues a priori.

    But, if after all that you are certain the problem ONLY exists with the smart top unit in the car I would definitely email Sven over at Wilhelmy. He was EXTREMELY helpful during the group buy I organized and I am sure would remedy any problem very quickly.

  2. You can buy updates but they have to be from Porsche directly. If you log on to the Navtech website they will direct you to the dealer for replacements. Quite the money making deal they have!!! You CANNOT use a disc from anywhere else, as it will not work. I can't even use the PCM disc from my family's S class Mercedes in the M class Mercedes. Just another way for them to keep making money. Best thing for you to do if you want an updated disc is to find the best dealer price and so with that.
