    Traded in my 4BW for a 5BW

    Amazing they had a precision package car on the lot. Was it ordered by a customer that backed out

    How many infotainment presets do we get?

    Four banks of six I think

    Dealer Deleted PDR recordings

    You might be able to recover the file. I’m not sure if the delete command from the display screen actually deletes the file or just the header of the file. Pop the SD card into your computer and find out.

    Underwhelming A/C

    There is no need to keep the RPM low as possible. In fact, that's bad. Only time I use 6th on my 4BW is if I'm cruising at 100 or more. It's hot and humid here in DC, no AC issues.

    Driver engagement? Selling/buying...

    It's free, just drive a Vette and they are attracted to one.

    Driver engagement? Selling/buying...

    I doubt you can find a new T on the lot, but used ones are for sale. In general I think that all Porsches are great but new ones are overpriced. I’ve had 4 of them, all bought CPO. Given the pricey maintenance as well. So I’m looking at a C8 Z06 now. Great deals on them and I found a new one...

    Driver engagement? Selling/buying...

    No he meant a 911 T. That’s the lightweight and less power engine model. In fact for 2025 it’s the only 911 you can get a manual tranny. A 911 TT is the big boy twin turbo with 3.8 liters. The T is only a 3.0 liter engine with smallish turbos. But you can bolt up bigger turbos and tune for a...

    Brake squeal fixes….

    If a procedure is not in the book, they won’t want to do it as the service writer controls what they do. Even if the mechanic wants and knows how to do something that’s not in the book, the service writer won’t authorize it. So if you are unable to remove the rotors and sand them, find a race...

    Audis are great but really boring now. Go buy the RS4 Cab that’s on bring a trailer website right now.

    Brake squeal fixes….

    New pads won’t help if the pad deposits on the rotor are uneven. Get new pads but also take the rotors off and sand them down some.

    Brake squeal fixes….

    I’d take the rear rotors off, sand off the pad deposits then rebed them. My 25 4BW does not squeal a bit.

    CT4-V 4BW issues the dealer can’t figure out

    It could be the parts of the shock assembly that mount it to the chassis. There is some sort of shock bushing on top that usually gets transferred over with a new shock. I had a clunk like that and it was the left rear shock. Also I’d check to make sure the battery is properly secured. It’s in...

    6MT folks- Anyone experience this after spirited driving?

    Your correct. Not sure if the BW has dual mass flywheel. Also the clutch is considered a wear item, and generally not covered under warranty. So the OP may have to do the old “I’ll take it apart and if I find the flywheel was defective the warranty will pay for it, if it looks like wear then...

    6MT folks- Anyone experience this after spirited driving?

    Might need a new flywheel and friction plate or get the one that’s in it turned. If that’s possible, in the so called old days one could get a machine shop to lightly turn the surface of a flywheel. Now? Probably not, plus it takes the right machine and skill set.
