It’s extremely frustrating that they have taken the excellent Good To Know app away before sorting out the replacement. Whoever was responsible for that piece of cretinism should be sacked or worse.

 
Hi all. Does anyone have a link to a PDF version of the 718 Cayman owners manual?

I didn’t receive the physical one with my car. Apparently there’s a delay getting them out (5 months now) and Porsche don‘t know when I will get it. I did use the Good To Know app, but Porsche have now taken this offline at the end of June, saying the manual is ‘coming soon’ to the (dreadful) My Porsche app. It’s not there yet so now I’m left with nothing :rolleyes:

Any help appreciated.
 
I have the manual in PDF format for my car (2018 718S). I don't know what differences there are for your GTS 4.0, but it is probably useful as a stopgap until you can get the correct one. Drop me a PM with your email address, and I'll send you a copy.

 
To be fair, the excellent Good To Know app is still working ( although it says it will be taken offline at end of June).

Hopefully common sense has prevailed and Good To Know will continue until they transfer the information contained within to the not at all excellent My Porsche app. We can but hope

 
User manuals are now on the 'My Porsche' App which should be linked to your car by your OPC.

Hi Dan,

I can't see the user manual in the 'My Porsche' app. Have been waiting for it to appear since the end of June when the 'Good to Know' app said it was being disabled and referred you to the 'My Porsche' app.

Where should it be appearing in the app?

When you open the My Porsche App you should see a picture of your car, and the name you chose to give it. on the top right of the screen is the word "Details" Click on this and you will have three tabs just below the car's name:

Overview Functions Manual

Just tap on the "Manual" and it will prompt you to download the User manual for your specific vehicle.

Of course, all of this assumes that you have logged into "My Porsche".

As long as you have logged in to the My Porsche App

For myself [an owner of a 718 GT4] there is no third tab; just Overview and Functions

I still have the 'Good to Know' app, and whilst I get the warning message, I am still able to access the manual there.

.... there is always the paper version [:)]

I just have Overview and Functions.

Could it be to do with what Manuals are available? My Cayman is MY2023.
