Don't know how Porsche would react warranty claim wise if anything went pear-shaped either.
If experiences are good I would take the risk on warranty. In any case when the free time of Porsche map updates and traffic info ends, it will be better to rely on Apple and Android for maps. I am planning this this to be a keeper.

I've only read positive feedback on Rennlist about it, if you're happy with the risk go for it. Can be a game changer for certain owners.

Bit of a thread revival, but has anyone got any experience of the CarLinkit trick box that allows Android Auto to be displayed on the Macan's PCM?

I don't have that specific box - but went with a similar one. The Ottocast U2-X-Pro

All of these boxes work to an extent, it's not the best AA experience, but it's better than nothing.

There does seem to be an annoying issue with the Ottocast (which I have raised with support and they are looking into) in that the audio delay on outgoing calls is unusable - it's a good 3/4 seconds. Whereas on incoming calls there is still a delay, but it's only half a second ish so is useable.

Waze/Spotify etc all work great though.
