Pcm - Updated Cds? Where To Get Them

[al123]

Anyone knows where to get updated nav CD for PCM (I need UK, my current CD says 08.2002)?

I also saw some discussions about PCM software version. Does that need update as well???

Navtech.com - tey are the company that supplies the disks

i just spoke to them, they claim they have nothing to do with Porsche and that I have to go through a dealer.

do you know if Navtech soft made for other cars is compatible with porsche? because on the website there are no references to Porsche

NavTech stopped delivering to Porsche due to the new PCM II, the only chance is to buy the update package from Porche direct.

At the moment there is a several upadte CD packages for PCM I (16-bit) from Porsche, not so sure about the 8-bit drives.

cheers,

That makes no sense. When I needed a disk for my region, my dealer sent me the order form for the disk. I filled it out and sent it to Navtech, paid them $140, and got my regional disk in the mail. I have my old disk in front of me. On the PCM disk, it says "Navtech on Board." Inside the box, their customer contact phone number is 1.888.628.6277 and web site is www.navtech.com.

Maybe you got someone who didn't know what they were talking about. I would try again - unless now they only want to take orders directly through the dealer (dealer mark-up???)

For some reason I checked Navtech and it seems they are now Navteq!! They did not have listings for Porsche NAV CDs online and siad to call instead...

Hi al123,

Navtech CD's for other cars (most propably) do not work with your PCM. I tried an Alfa CD (exactly the same system), but without success.
