Porsche hidden functions

Porsche vehicles include functions in their software that are not active from the factory. We activate them by coding the car's own modules, keeping the factory look and behavior.

What it is

What is a hidden function?

Modern cars share the same hardware across many trims and markets. The difference between them is often only software: a setting in a control module that turns a function on or off.

Coding changes those settings for your vehicle. Most functions need no extra hardware, use the original buttons and menus, and can be reversed later.

Before we start, we read your vehicle's configuration and confirm which functions it supports.

Availability depends on model, year, market and installed equipment. We confirm what your vehicle supports from its VIN before any work starts.

Matrix headlights, lane departure warning and Traffic Jam Assist need matrix headlights, the front camera or adaptive cruise control to be fitted. We confirm this from your VIN.

Video in motion is intended for passengers only. Some lighting changes, including matrix high beam, may not be permitted for road use in every state; check your local regulations.
