I sold my 996 and got a 997 C2S. It has no nav cd. How do I know what PCM version the car has?

Can you see it or recall the version number somewhere on the screen.

Thanks.

The last update on the PCM was on October and November of 2005 by the previous owner. Help? :unsure:

If you have a 997 it will use a DVD rather than CD for the navigation. The DVD drive sits in the front luggage compartment. If you want to check the version of PCM press the MAIN and TRIP buttons at the same time. This will reveal a menu with all the software versions etc. If the car was registered after 2005 then it will prpbably not require any updates to be able to use newer map DVD's. If it is a 2004 or 2005 model year it is possible it will require a software/ firmware update. Post the details back on the thread and i'll see If I can help further.

I'm not sure what you mean about the previous owner updating. Please can you explain a little more ?

Have you pressed the two buttons ? This should show you the software version at the top of the screen .
