I am thinking of retrofitting the MF wheel however after hearing how it works in the Porsche I am not sure I want it. I have it in the BMW and the buttons on the wheels are rocker switches that select the next item after each press. ie, station, song, etc. However, from what other member have explained, the scroll on the Porsche MF wheel moves around the item just like the stalk for the PCM but without any geared notches so you are scrolling free from one item to another and have to look at the dash to see which menu item is selected rather than it automatically going to the next one. Might be useful if you are trying to scroll fast through the phone book or song but quite useless when just scanning stations, song or names one at a time... Which is what I find myself doing with the MF wheel in the BMW 99% of the time.

It is actually fairly easy and straight forward for a 2009 with PDK. Go to 6speedonline dot com and do a quick search. Quite a number of members have done the upgrade and just gotten the dealer to activate the new MF wheel. Unfortunately it is a bit more tedious if you have a manual.
