I'm speaking from the US market. I think you're right about it working in Canada. I recently read a thread where a taycan owner (I think) had their matrix lights coded in the US and when he took his car in for service, he told his advisor "Don't worry if the car thinks it's Canadian". 😂
I always like to quote the Magnuson Moss act, which gives you theoretical protections in the US. Practically speaking though, you still have to have the time and money if Porsche stonewalls you or makes you take them to court.
I know this isnt a proper bose or burmester built in equalizer, but as a workaround, since I use android auto, I've been using my phone's equalizer to tune the sound and it's been working pretty well.

Ok, now that I've gotten a chance to take a longer drive, I can confirm some of my earlier observations with innodrive:

Ok, got the car back from the dealership today after getting the update. Tried out the innodrive on the quick 15 minute drive home had some initial impressions
It seemed to favor the right side only about half the time, and it was pretty neutral the other half of the time. So improvement over...
Another data point:
Just got the car back after the update. Plugged it in at home and it started charging right away. Getting the full usual 9.2kw
Location is southern California
Charger is Autel
No departure time set.
If you change your mind about the Porsche dash cam and you can cancel the order, you can always install an aftermarket camera to the Porsche pre wiring.
I connected my Blackvue 970x using a harness connector I got at a local VW dealership for around $20. Made short work of finding constant...
That's fantastic news if it's part of the update! I have turned lane keeping off because I'm so tired of constantly fighting it putting pressure to go left.
If it's not part of the update, then I might need to ask for recalibration. But thank you for the information.
Adding to CraigW1's comment, 39psi is the partial load value for summer tires. For all seasons, unfortunately the recommendation is 44psi partial, 48psi full load
Regarding the comment about character differences, I've heard initial rumors that the GTS does actually have a different driving character. I'm looking forward to more in depth reviews when they start coming out.
I originally wanted insulated glass on my turbo, I decided to pull the trigger...
Just checked the Google maps page in the Google Play store and it shows that the last update was Jan 14, 2026, which is right before jwatte made this post. Seems to correlate.
I reported the issue in the maps app through the "help and feedback" function to try and get it on their radar. If...
Ok, update on my situation:
-Tried apple maps, worked fine
- reset PCM (20 second volume knob press) and Google maps still didn't work after that.
Seems to be pointing to google/android issue
Today was the first time Ive driven the car since last week and this morning I found the same thing
Nav instructions gone from the HUD, but driver screen and center screen still show nav updates.
Scrolled through all the HUD layouts and went through the process of re customizing the custom...
