Have bought a new car Macan, and I heard a friend say to brush some Porsche hidden functions, using the Porsche engineers version of the computer brush out, which a friend can help me brush out, computer engineer, who can brush out, please contact me, and I will thank you to the way you like.

Yes… It refers to additional steps you need to take, but all can be done with X431.

For example, to activate illumination of the RPM and Speedometer dials, there are two steps. You can’t activate the Speedometer dial illumination without first activating the RPM dial illumination. You are seeing the “requires additional coding” in the Speedometer dial illumination because if you activate that alone, you won’t see anything happening… it requires the additional RPM dial illumination code.

Hope this clarifies.

FYI 24.06 released after contacting support and working through the feedback process. I'm happy to report I have full access to my instrument cluster now. THERE IS A TON OF STUFF in there, lots to go through and I enabled all the things I wanted.

I don't know if anyone was aware but you can enable the joker (diamond) button for ALL of the sport and sport plus stuff Including the sport exhaust

Just coded that, not sure if it's going to work or not. It did throw an error in the dash when I enabled it, from your post, I went ahead and cleared the error and reran the pdls test in the x431.

@Teddis The car already did the right and left turn light up the curb areas before I farted with it, I assume yours did as well since you also have pdls+, so I need to go see if both sides light up at an intersection once it gets dark tonight. Still light out here.

Anyone want to help me hunt down this 3 minute timer ?

I checked air conditioning module since it's in the "air conditioning and ergonomics" section of the book, but I may be missing this code or it exists somewhere else. Southern California air smells like a fart and I don't particularly wish to smell the outside air coming in so trying to keep recirculation active and stay active while I drive the car, regardless of their warning.

Id like to keep the recirculation on indefinitely when button is pushed
