Noddys guide to updating the Sav Nav disks

[MickeyG]

Hi All,

I have done a search and found many threads on this general topic, however I am slightly confused. I have just bought a 2005 Cayenne Turbo, however the disks are way out of date. Has anyone updated recently and have a noddys guide in terms of how to do the upgrade. I am new to this, and so far have found how to determine the PCM version of software, and will be conducting a search to find the CD/DVD player that houses the Nav Disk as I do not know where that is either!

Thanks in advance for any help, always appreciated.

my Turbo S the sat nav CD player is under the drivers seat

I obtained the upgrade disc direct from Germany (it was a lot cheaper)

The disk goes in and the PCM asks if you want to upgrade

Its strightforward

Did you update the software first?

From Porsche Germany or somewhere else?

I was going to use this lot for an update to my PCM 2.1

I used Rusty from

Upgraded the software on PCM and then inserted the disk in the sat nav....all worked a treat. All for a very reasonable fee.

Yes, I upgraded the PCM software first

The CD I purchased was definitely 'grey' in colour (if you know what I mean), it cost about £20

Just ordered from Rusty from

His site doesn't seem to refer to Porsches, just BMW and RR but he does PCM upgrades.

Hope it works for you too Adam.

Slight hiccup as it didn't - but he is sending me a software update CD

Hi Adam - I needed to update the software first too - to 2.1c IIRC. After that the sat nav worked fine.
