Hi, I have 2 996 T's that have different radios fitted. (they were made about a week apart).
One of them, on start up says "system error, CD, phone Nav no available" Thing is, car doesn't have these things fitted?!
Question one is, was this an original fitted unit or has it been swapped with a unit that should have Nav, CD etc?
question 2 is, how do I fix the error message? The radio and single CD work fine.
I'll put a pic of each one up.
Any help, advise on this much appreciated!
Cheers
Andy

Does PCM show in the options list in the maintenance booklet or under the front lid?

If the PCM has been retrofitted without the devices shown, I suspect that it wasn't re-coded to suit. It should be a simple job to re-code the PCM to get rid of the error message. You need someone with a Porsche PST2 or PIWIS tester.
 
Thanks for the advice. I have the build spec from Porsche and it just says "Standard Radio", so I suspect someone has fitted a PCM afterwards, but with non of the modules (Phone CD changer, Nav). Why? I have no idea!!
Cheers
Andy
