Well hope you get it sorted mate. Love the Willys Jeep. Great car.
if you are on instagram I’ve created an account for the resto. Is called my1969_911resto
Nightmare mate. Did you order it new? I got mine new in 2022 but it was a MY21 car. I’ve had wiring look replaced, boot locking mechanism replaced, info system repaired, heater failure, multiple dealer software updates, and the latest brake recall. All in all, crap. As said above amazing car to...
haha I bought a S4 instead of the 997. I’ve had a 993 and sold it when my eldest was born! The 69 is a full resto. Marathon not a sprint. Welding is nearly done on it.
Really? Is it glitchy? I’ve only had aircooled 911’s. Nearly bought a 997 a few years back but sensible head kicked in. And wife whinged I had to many cars!
Mine is leased though company car scheme. If it wasn’t for me leaving the company in November I’d be pushing them to take it back and replace it. But that’s pointless for now. Such a shame. My first new built to my spec Porsche. Luckily I’m a Porsche geek so hasn’t put my off the wider brand...
Yup, amazing car to drive, worst car I’ve had. Had mine 2 years in July. Lots of issues. I won’t be getting another one for a while. I’m going to step off the EV thing for a few years. Let the tech catch up. Look at the next gen in a few years time. Can’t be arsed with this level of reliability...
So my car went in for its UK brake recall yesterday. I got it back. No problems. I charged it last night in a pub round the corner from home as my garage is being rebuilt so no EV charger at the mo.
I got an alert on the connect app saying my car had stopped charging! So I went to see what was...
it’s my first new order Porsche but not my first Porsche. I’d agree. Really disappointed by the experience. Definitely feel I got a beta mode car! Shame as it’s a great drive.
I’ll get my 69 on the road and stick to analog ?
Just received my recall letter in the post today. Booked into Porsche Newcastle in a few weeks because I need a curtesy car from them. Not had any warning light as described in the recall letter. Pretty crap really. I’ve had heater failure, part of the wiring loom replaced, boot lock replaced...
Cheers. Hopefully it’s just another glitch. They are getting tedious and boring now though. Exacerbated by the heaters not working either. It’s not done this in the last 20k miles. I’ll check again tomorrow.
Neither mate. It’s 7 degrees Celsius here so can’t be heat or cold. That’s mild. I think like 40 Fahrenheit?
It wasn’t doing it when I drove home but it was stuttering! If it were a ICE I’d say a blocked jet in a carb that kind of stutter. Bizarre. I’ll call the garage in the morning.
So I’m currently sat in a car park in Seaham, County Durham UK having dropped my son at cricket training. On the way here every time I put my foot down the car backed off and the snail symbol appeared. It’s driving and accelerating modestly but it won’t accelerate harder. I’ll call the garage in...
Yes I remember the dog debate and CT/ST discussion on here when I got the saloon. Wished I’d opted for the CT now to be fair. But we didn’t have a 40kg GSD like now ?. I’ll have to see how it goes. I’ve got the car until next year. I’ll monitor newer models performance. See if they get better...
yes I’d have to agree on this experience. To date this is the newest Porsche I’ve had. So I can’t comment on other modern Porsche. I’m an aircooled Porsche man so way less to go wrong.
I’ve not had the charger issue. I have had boot lock failure, seatbelt warning light resets, the usual info system failures, going blank, resets and now this. All new car tech is glitchy but this car is waaay more glitchy than any other car i’ve had. Shame. It’s spoilt the experience. I’m still...
