Hi!
I just wondered if anyone could help and confirm on some of the below questions, so that I can ascertain whether I am simply not aware of settings, if there are problems or if they are just system limitations?
I have a 2019 Gen 2 Macan S
-Does/should the media volume quieten when reversing or when parking sensors turn on to enable sensor beeps to be heard? Is this a setting? Mine currently does not, but most cars I would say this does happen.
-When listening to Bluetooth music can you scroll through tracks or select via the steering controls apart from if diamond key is set to next media track? Mine appears not to.
CarPlay
-Can you initiate a phone call on car play from the steering wheel controls. Mine you cannot, only via the main central screen.
-With car play can you scroll through tracks etc with the steering controls on car play. Mine you cannot.
-If you have the steering diamond key set to next media track, on car play play does this still select next track? My key does not do anything on car play only on Bluetooth streaming.
-Are you able to access the manual on the PCM? Mine says needs installing. Should OPC have installed this or something?
Need a help

You should try posting your question in“ Electronics and car entertainment “.You may get a better response.
There’s no content in the drivers manual on mine either. I generally go online and use the Good to Know app.1Tap wrote: ↑Thu Sep 12, 2019 9:06 pm Hi!

Regarding CarPlay phone calls - no I don’t think you can make calls using steering wheel controls. You can always use Siri voice control if you want to make hands free calls.
You may find my earlier post ‘Top tech quirks’ of some interest.

-When listening to Bluetooth music can you scroll through tracks or select via the steering controls apart from if diamond key is set to next media track? Mine appears not to.
Yes. Scroll through the right hand thumbwheel for Audio and press the thumbwheel. Mine lists the tracks and can scroll up / down to select
CarPlay
-Can you initiate a phone call on car play from the steering wheel controls. Mine you cannot, only via the main central screen.
Yes. Long press on the left hand stalk end brings up Siri. Then can ask Siri to call whoever
Hope this helps
