Hi Ben,

I have wireless CarPlay on my 2020 Macan S, which works very well with my iPhone SE (2020).

My May 2019 Gen 2 S only has wired CarPlay, not wireless. SE at the OPC told me that wireless came in a bit later.

Ah, I am surprised that the hardware is different within such a short period of time.

I’ve not found it on our 19 gen 2 but I do have it on the 992
Thanks Tracky. It’s a strange one as surely the hardware is there but seems like it could be a possibility that the 2019 gen 2 didn’t get it. I will probably try a factory reset and then reconnect everything back up. If it still isn’t there then I’ll make do with wired or consider the c2play adapter.
Did you get a definitive answer on this?
Not yet. My car is booked in on 1st March at Brooklands OPC. This is one of the things on the list.

I do have the C2play adapter which works 95% of the time, sometimes needs to be pulled out and plugged back in. Would prefer if they could sort it out though when it’s in. I would think a software update is required unless they physically changed some of the back end hardware a few months into production of 2019 cars.

Keen to hear what they find out. I use Brooklands too.

This makes sense - I had one of the very first 992's in April 2019 and it didn't have wireless CarPlay

Only been a porsche owner since November so haven't used them before but its one of the closest to me. What's your experience been like with them?

Not got my hopes up for a fix but I'll be sure to post an update when I have one.
