Aplogy as this has probably been done to death elsewhere on here.
Anybody out there who has actually had the PCM3 upgrade to get the 7 digit post codes?

I'd like to know of, besides updating the Nav with postcodes, is there any other upgrade to the PCM itself?

I rang Porsche Exeter who quoted £199 inc.VAT to use the 4 discs to upgrade and want the car in for "best part of a day"
When I queried length of time the car would be required I was quoted "often when we get to disc 3 it will crash out and we have to start again"

Anybody has actual experience of this upgrade and your comments please.

They take hours.

We got blue sky and clouds.

I can now understand they take hours.
Can you enlighten me on Blue Skies and Clouds comment?
Or was that simply you watching blue skies and clouds while you waited?

I was hoping the maps would be better in Europe, but still quite out of date. Having done it on one car, I didn't bother updating the other one.
