No app update in switzerland; in quite a while actually. I wonder if they roll out the updates / features country by country... seems inneficent

In switzerland, not even 3h away from where this thing is built; they don't have the parts for this. Since 2 months.

I am wondering if in UK some of the dealers are replacing the part with the same length / old part. Or how exactly do they get the new part if switzerland / germany can't get any...

I'm on Android if that helps (normally expect Apple to be first). There's been a couple recently. Perhaps reinstall / check app settings.

They'll all be new parts. I suspect Porsche is sharing the limited supply across all its dealers around the world. My local OPC told me they expect good supply of parts from October.

I'm still booked for this Thursday

It's worth checking they have the parts before you make the journey.

They'll call (been through this saga before for other recall work) beforehand so there is still time.

You and me both................. phone call tomorrow to confirm.........

Mine is in today for this recall.

Been booked for over a month now, but they are also fixing the boot as it won't open with the button, key or interior button. First car I've ever owned where the boot doesn't work - new one on me.

 

[f1eng]

I've had that for weeks along with a letter.

I wouldn't sweat it - those who have had the work done did not require it as far as I'm aware.

That triangle appeared for me after the app update but also after the recall had already been done.
Poor.

Brake hoses replaced and WPK0 update applied.

Noticeably different feel to the brakes, much sharper, less travel to get them to bite and once stopped far less pressure to get the Hold to come on.

When you get hold on, does it pull the pedal to the floor?

 

[Bennachie]

No. pedal stays basically as is.

Same here in France. No app update, still no recall info from Porsche. I had a,preliminary date for the brake update by my service manager, but that has been cancelled due to a lack of parts! No news after that. Unbelievably bad or totally lacking communication from Porsche in France. Not only this time but also all the previous recalls.

 

[csm7djs]

Pedal stays roughly where it was before.

Its the amount of pressure you apply before the HOLD appears that has changed making it much easier (and better).

 

[Bennachie]

Confirmed replacement tomorrow...........
