retro fit Power Steering Plus

Was thinking of having this retro fitted to my Gen 3, however rather surprisingly West London OPC have told me that it's not possible.

Has anyone here with a Gen 3 had it done elsewhere? Know it used to be possible.

Thanks

...and does anyone know where it is / was on the Porsche website? I can find it for previous gen Boxster in Euros, but not for Macan

Had it fitted to wife’s Boxster but while chatting to them they said there is no software package yet to retrofit to gen3 although they have it for 1 and 2.

Hatfield told me it’s not available on Gen 3 yet, but keep checking their web site.
But I’m starting to get used to the normal steering now.

Quite. Will build some beach muscles when driving around town

When the Typical solo parking of a Porsche applies there is minimal need for steering effort.

Simply Drive Straight In ……. Drive Straight Out

Ah yes. That's the way

I thought the Macan steering was very heavy when I first got the car. But I very quickly got used to it and I don’t think about it now.

I came from a car with famously “electronic” steering - an Audi.
