Does anyone know where I can go to get my PCM 3.1 updated? its currently version 1.35 and im told theres many updates available.

It has some intermittent cutting out issue.

What is the latest version for my PCM? Does anyone know?

2010 panamera.

Thank you.

3.1 relates to the hardware version.

The software version is lower, but the only thing an update will often get you is maps update, which I think is usually 1 or 2 years behind anyway.

OPC's can do it, it's about £350 and they need the car for half a day. When I enquired with my OPC a few years back they surprisingly said it was probably better to just use Google Maps... what most of their customers do apparently

Thats shocking for them to say that.
I have heard of a bluetooth glitch that is rectified by a firmware update.

I also hear about 4.76 being the latest. Mine is 1.35 so its very, very old.

I don't use the navigation side of things, I think mine has the original maps on. I just wanted to update the FW to see if it rectifies my problem before going down a more expensive route (or not) I do use my phone a lot for navigation..etc.

This guy has done 2 videos that may cover what you want to know.
This is the second. I’ll have to find his earlier one too.

You can update it, which will help with the Bluetooth glitches, but it won't update to 4.76. Its a hardware thing. A 4.xx system will update to 4.76 and a 3.xx system will update to 3.43. Not sure about 1.xx and 2.xx - I would have to look it up.

I have the update DVD. Email me via my profile if you would like a copy.
