CDr-23 and newer radios do not have codes to enter. The radios are matched in the DME - so if you change radios you will need a shop with a PST2 or PIWIS tester.

Sorry, DME ? and CDr-23 ? assistance appreciated.

If your car has a radio model CDR-23 then the radio code is locked in the engine control unit (DME).

If you change (Porsche) radios you need to have a shop or dealer change the code in the DME.

Im not sure about the radio model, Ill check. Im not looking to change the radio, just add 2 door speakers and an amp. So my concern is when the battery is disconnected will the stock radio go into secure mode. The car was in storage over the winter and the Battery went dead but the radio did not appear to be effected? Thanks for your help and hopefully it is a cdr-23!

Does the car currently have an amp?

If it is the Porsche amp (Harman or BOSE) then it is likely on the MOST (fiber optical) network. If that is the case, then you will need someone to make some program changes for any new/removed components.

I'd say step one is to find out exactly what is in your car now.

No amp and I will find out what exactly I have and then go from there. Thanks for your input and I will let you know how Im making out.

Cheers
