At all.

It seems to work, but no music, phone sounds or anything.

Any ideas chaps please?

Have you re-booted it?

Hold the volume button down for 10 to 15 sec, let go and the Porsche logo will appear

Stupid question, have you muted it? Done that before, hit the power button for a couple of seconds and it mutes or unmutes. Caught me out once.

If not, I used Cartronics to repair mine and they did a great job

The power button being the volume control?

The base speakers in the doors have stopped working on mine. Does anyone know if the cables would be behind the head unit/PCM or is there an amp located elsewhere?

Depends on options fitted - look in luggage area, the amp is usually covered by the removable section (2 x twist fasteners undo it)

Sounds like your amp has failed. Cartronics or Tore @ Begville FX can fix.

Thanks. Do you mean the section where the battery is (cover with 2 fasteners)?
