No faults reported and I have no faults at all with the Macan in just over 2 years. Maybe once or twice Camera has not come up but switch ignition off and back on and problem resolved.

I just asked that I wanted the latest software update done. The latest update only came out about 2-3 weeks ago and had to be ordered in on an SD Card. Process should take an hour or so at OPC

I will update next week once all done but I don’t think this will do anything with the sim issue but never know.
I’d be very interested to know what software versions you get, including the navigation database. Perhaps you could take before and after screenshots?

Will do 👍.

I was planing on doing that anyway and also list out any new functionality etc.

Below for Nick and anyone else that is considering the update.
Had my December 2016 GTS PCM update done today.
The main thing I noticed and wanted was the volume display at the top (see in bottom pic and sorry it’s a bit fuzzy)
It also allows greater control when adjusting the Nav volume while it talks you can adjust better than before and not adjust the rest of the audio. I know some people were complaining on other posts of this issue so get the update and it’s great.

It made no difference to the SIM card running at 10mb ish.

I have not played that much so would assume some general fixes more than functionality with the update.

There was no cost and the process took around 2 hours.
