By pushing firmly on the break at a stop you automatically go into “Hold” mode. This is convenient at a long signal or stop and is not associated with the stop/start feature as you can leave your foot entirely off the brake pedal. The start/stop feature only works in the normal driving mode as well. When in sport or sport plus’s it does not engage upon a stop.
Thank you! It’s been a year and i has no idea my car had the 12V socket on the passenger side. Super helpful for my radar detector..although I’m not sure if it shuts off when the car does..either way, hugely helpful
Great video and very informative. Would be worthwhile showing how to open the bonnet with a flat battery on a 992 (once you have opened the door with the secret key) and charge the bonnet release with a battery pack..... as I have just had to learn....!
@@Get10Yards car is in my garage but working in Switzerland. As it hasn’t been driven for 3 months had a call from our friendly Porsche Connect at 3am this morning informing me of the same. Got my friend to go around and start the engine in an attempt to charge the battery.... when he couldn’t open the door, I started to panic.... and investigated how to charge the Bonnet Release (Bench Charge) I was then reminded by the Porsche dealer that (whom called me this evening... great service) I have 2 years Porsche Assist. Best of luck from a Geordie lad in Zurich
@@fredvasey4849 ah right! You know what I likely would have gone looking to find out how to do something too instead of just ringing the Porsche Assist! Glad you got it sorted then, I will bare that in mind with it being in the front boot! All the best Fred hope Zurich is treating you well!
Good video. The tire sealant is furnished instead of a spare. If you get a flat you can attempt to seal the tire and inflate it. You should also have an air pump. I have the 992 c2s and regret not getting a base C2 instead. I'm wondering is your paint the metallic black or the base black?
Hey Frank, thanks for the info! I think in the UK the air pump is a cost extra, twice as much as an unbranded one the same from a car maintenance store. I always carry a socket tool set in the car but I need a new pump! I just went with the flat cost free Black. I did get the car ceramic coated though at the dealer on delivery.
@@petermorris3665 yes I found it and added another video after to help others who might look for it too! thanks for the help though! th-cam.com/video/d00B9maDZs4/w-d-xo.html
In the US models Porsche has a system called Homelink. You can program your garage door there. It is built into the PCM but you can create a shortcut to it with one of the programmable buttons.
Frank is that an APP through the PCM connect? I checked this morning and the Homelink isn't on my system. I am ware of what it is I think it was on my last BMW. Maybe it's a region set up and it can be downloaded to the system through the Porsche connect?
@@Get10Yards hmm I'm not sure maybe something with the UK models that is different. If you go to vehicle settings in the PCM you should see a menu open for HomeLink setup. I believe it is a standard feature, at least in the US.
@@charp150 Hello Frank you know we did that but when you are backing out of the garage it is a pain in the butt to get to it even with the shortcut button. wonder if there is an easier way.
I think you can load music onto the PCM system, I could be wrong but there is the USB ports. You could just put a memory stick in there and leave it. I play my youtube music app and itunes straight off my phone plugged in
@@Get10Yards hi thanks for replying I know you can play music via usb but older Porsche you can save music from usb to hard drive on the PCM but on 992 I can’t find it anywhere !!
If you have the sport chrono you can add turning it off to the Individual setting on the wheel button, so you can set it that way when you get in the car. But I don't have that. Unfortunately otherwise you have to turn it off everytime you get in the car and I have checked online on some Porsche sites and it seems it has to be set to ON when starting the car to be correct to the emission tests to get the car passed.
Hi Herbert! Thank you for letting me know! In the past I have had new cars and had extra bottles of screen wash or other things never tyre sealant though.
@@Get10Yards is supposed to be used when you have a flat, under the front cover you have a air compressor and you introduce the sealant in your flat wheel.
@@Get10Yards in the front you have cover that starts uder the windscreen and it ends under the trunk rubber gasket, under this cover, in the middle is a black box and there you should have the air compressor. If it was an option maybe you didn’t have it.

Thank you- for the life of me I could never find the 12v socket in the passenger side- thanks a million

oh wow! what caused the flat battery Fred? Where did you manage to find out what to do?

Why can’t I get my garage door open & close to operate when the backup camera is on? 9:09 PM

@@Get10Yards I saw another video where the compressor is accessed via the front boot. It was under that large black panel below the windscreen.

the sealant is for a on the road flat tire fix, so you can get to the dealer and get a new tire without a tow.
Correct. They have since removed it as a standard include like some of the other regions and it’s now a cost extra!
Epi(lepti)c intro 🤪
How do you check your engine oil level? The manual isn't very clear
you need to go into the menu on your right hand screen on the dash. if you hit the scroll button to get the written menu it's in that list
That is to inflate the tire if you get a flat. Should also be an airpump there as well.
Indeed. It looks like they have added it back to the included options again on new cars after they took it away to charge for it. In the UK at least!
You can find out more about the exterior of my Porsche 992 Carrera 2 here th-cam.com/video/ejUHc6ma51g/w-d-xo.html
In the US, at least, the tire sealant and air compressor are included as standard
it’s strange how in some regions it’s a cost extra. That came up on the regions video I made.
Thank you! How about a garage opener button?
I don’t think so. I’ve not seen any settings in the PCM for that.
In the US models Porsche has a system called Homelink. You can program your garage door there. It is built into the PCM but you can create a shortcut to it with one of the programmable buttons.

There is no jukebox on 992? How can you save your music in the hard drive!!
I think you can load music onto the PCM system, I could be wrong but there is the USB ports. You could just put a memory stick in there and leave it. I play my youtube music app and itunes straight off my phone plugged in
@@Get10Yards hi thanks for replying I know you can play music via usb but older Porsche you can save music from usb to hard drive on the PCM but on 992 I can’t find it anywhere !!
@@obb999 You can also load up an SD card with your music and insert it into the card reader
Can you turn off auto Start/Stop function permanently?
If you have the sport chrono you can add turning it off to the Individual setting on the wheel button, so you can set it that way when you get in the car. But I don't have that.
Unfortunately otherwise you have to turn it off everytime you get in the car and I have checked online on some Porsche sites and it seems it has to be set to ON when starting the car to be correct to the emission tests to get the car passed.
I have the same tier sealant in my car.

@@Get10Yards is supposed to be used when you have a flat, under the front cover you have a air compressor and you introduce the sealant in your flat wheel.
Where exactly is your air compressor Herbert? I don't believe I have one and it was a cost extra when ordering the car from the UK I didn't take.

Damn the car amazingly under grade. No wireless charging no hybrid no back seats fir humans. No premium lights or aggressive design shit. Just 💩
Why do I need all those things? Why pay for things I don’t use or want?
