Just remember to remove any non-approved accessories before you take yours in for the warranty work ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many are linked nd some are even temperature dependent. Eg every fifth time you shut down - the wipers will self wiggle to ensure they have a clean surface Damn, I'd noticed the wiper wiggle sometimes but hadn't thought about it. Now I'm going to be counting... and worrying if it hasn't wiggled on the 6th go. Out of interest, when you first go to the car and press the unlock, or maybe it's when you first open the door (can't remember) it makes a whirring sound a bit like a fuel pump. Is it the fuel pump? Seems an odd time to be priming pressure. If you just went to the car to get something out then it's half a second of inefficiency, which I know Porsche detest.

I can adequately heel/toe but the rev matching the car does is really fun as sounds spectacular on a hard drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I enjoy trying to nail a good heal and toe but must admit the rev matching is great fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my PDK the downshift rev matching doesn't produce any significant engine braking, in fact it surges just a little bit, which feels a bit disconcerting.

I have a favourite B road and dropping to second around 50 as your braking coming into a bend the theatre of sounds makes me grin every time. First time I realised it did it was such a great surprise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
