The two quick action PCM buttons are a convenient feature, that in principle save time and avoid taking eyes of the road for an extended period.

I have programmed the steering wheel quick action button to open my garage door (Homelink).

I haven't yet programmed the second button on the dash and am undecided as to which feature should be assigned.

Let's hear what features y'all have programmed with your QA buttons.

My car only has one, and it's set to the Homelink for the garage doors. But I have to say the GPS is so good at pulling it up when I approach the garage, I'm temped to follow Hawk, especially after this...

Typical Porsche - I was able to program the steering wheel button on my 2021 992 to bring up the front camera view. However, on my 2021 Cayenne GTS it is not one of the available options. Maybe because there is a button in the overhead console to bring up the front camera view? Only Porsche knows. :lol:

@Tom You only have the one Programable button on the steering wheel because you optioned FAL, or some other option, that replaces the second Programable button.

Ah, I do have FAL. Would be nice to have another programmable one. I could swear there were unused buttons on that panel still....

Parking camera for the one on the steering wheel and garage door opener for the one in the middle.

As mentioned I hadn't yet programmed the second quick action button on the dash.

The steering wheel QA button I use to activate Homelink - which it does well maybe 80% of the time. Other times I have to move the vehicle, often only a short distance. Also Homelink seems to respond better with only a short momentary tap on the QA button rather than a long press.

Yesterday I assigned the front camera view to the second QA button. For me this makes most sense, not that I'll use it every day but when I need it it's only one action, not a series of PCM commands.

My dash button is programmed to show HomeLink and my steering button is programmed to bring up the parking camera, I use both every time I drive.
