moonshine Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 Rather than getting PWIS coding to remember last used ASS, PSE and Sport setting, I got this memory module from T-design in the states https://t-design9.com/memory_module_porsche.html Plug and play. Cost £190GBP, but got stung for £55 VAT, Customs duty and handling charges 😭 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muddypaws Posted July 31, 2023 Report Share Posted July 31, 2023 (edited) I had a prior engagement & couldn't make it. Adding insult to injury, a host of 911's past me on the A424 going down to Burford! Where did your route take you to?

RBD914 v2 Posted August 1, 2023 Report Share Posted August 1, 2023 Took the GTS into OPC Newcastle for it's 8th anniversary health check and major service. All clear, no issues reported, and at £904 a lot cheaper then Edinburgh, Glasgow or Kendal OPC. Test drove a Taycan 4S Sport Turismo, very nice but very expensive. I was far more impressed with the MG4 XPower that I also tested...see electric car thread for details! £36k for 429bhp, 4wd, 4 seats and 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds - amazing!

Davey P Posted August 3, 2023 Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 Booked the Cayman into Dovehouse for a service. Earliest they could do was 5th September, so they are obviously keeping busy at the moment... Might be an expensive one this time, I reckon the front brakes will need sorting out, plus a few minor points that were raised last time will need inspecting. I've only done 5000 miles since the last service 12 months ago, but I prefer to get it looked at every year instead of 2 years as per the recommended schedule. That's far too long between oil changes IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topbox Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Replaced the coolant cap as I had had some coolant warnings which appeared false. The old cap was very stiff to turn and no longer had the "click" over tightening feature, rather like a torque wrench. The new cap went on easily and tightened correctly. I could see no great damage to the old cap only very minor damage on a small lug on the underside. It also came to my attention that I should set my C-TEK battery maintainer to the AGM setting as 981s have stop-start facility and are factory fitted with AGM batteries. A friend here found his 981 a bit dead and had not used AGM on the maintainer. Yeah I know, how did we not know that 🙄 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
