    Accurate review thanks - many 718 Spyder ( including mine) have had PADM transmission mount a failure ( some multiple times ) - expensive but replaced under warranty if you have it - as they fail randomly porsche not recalled

      @Nicke_C8H18 2 місяці тому +1

      @johnob1824 BSR did my tune. Swedish tuner. Have dealer's all over the world. There is definitely a difference from stock. More exhaust sound. 400hp and 529Nm torque. Can be little twitchy/aggressive in sport mode.

    My 2024 Cayman GTS 4.0 still grinds second gear. It happens randomly and it doesn’t matter if the car is cold or warm. It doesn’t matter if the clutch is fully engaged. What I do now is I go from 1st to neutral for one second then to second gear. This has avoided the grind.
