I just logged on to the Porsche Connect Portal to quickly check my state of charge and noticed a Green Cloud Icon which looked like a download button on the Home Screen (to the right of the car image). When I click it I'm presented with an animation and the message 'Online software update active. Updates will be installed automatically'. I've not checked in the car yet but has anyone else experienced this and if so any idea which update is being deployed at the moment?

I have enabled that months ago. So far I have received only map and infotainment updates. In fact, yesterday I received 11 infotainment updates.

Me too. I reviewed 11 updates the other day. Infotainment ones only though - weather, news, etc. Since those updates though the car doesn’t remember my HUD last setting.

So it's just telling you that online updates are activated in the PCM and not that there are updates available or active - nothing to get overly excited about.

I think the portal was updated in the past 2 weeks when this appeared.

Is that fact or an educated guess?

Well I've had it for a week now and no new notifications on the PCM to advise of any software updates, so yes I think I'm correct.

Acid test is to disable online updates and see what happens.

I heard from PC Rotterdam that Porsche is busy updating the connect website back-end. I did notice that the FoD additions became available again for me, so I took a subscription on the Porsche Innodrive and active lane keeping (both free for 3 months) on Friday evening, but until now haven't appeared in the car. I did follow the procedure that is described. Maybe something has to be done by Porsche manually, which hopefully means it will become available on Monday.

It’s not active immediately has to be downloaded to the car may take a day or two.

Yes I noticed that yesterday. Looks like some backend changes being rolled out.
