Are you talking about the open recall letter that Porsche HQ in the US has to issue to you for Canadian customs? They didn't even look at my car. They sent me the letter for free.

I tried all combinations of buttons to get it to change, but the only thing that worked was getting the dealer to change it with their computer. This is on a 2002.

Last year I put Castrol Syntec 5W-50 in my '02. I'm pretty sure it used to be an approved oil, but now I see that most 5W-50s are off the list. Is this because they don't approve seasonal oils any...

I put a Robbins top with glass window on my '02. They gave me a long Velcro strap that you wrap around the whole top to pull the window up and away from the engine for better access.

Well that's good. Not sure why it's only started lately, though. I guess yours has done this for a while without ill effects?

Okay, I tried something else. I tried to start it with the clutch out, disabling the engine from starting or turning over.

Lately, on a cold start I will hear a loud knocking sound coming from the engine compartment. It will last about 1-2 seconds, and then everything is normal. It's happened twice in the last couple...

Anybody get results from this? I must say I'm not too impressed. On my 2002 non S the best I could do is 7.5 sec on the 0-60. Not too favorable to the 6.2ish standard. Although I've read on...

Mine seems to be doing the same thing. Will move like 1mm instead of the required amount to open/close the door. Thanks for the user experience.
