Not when turning. All times when starting off. Just as the speedo gets to 10mph there's a soft click.
It'a the automatic door lock.

Re: Overdue PDK oil change.

I always tell them not to touch the Adblu. I've got a massive drum in my yard for the HGV's that costs pennies per litre. They've charged you £3.50 a litre for pigs piss. You can get a good pint in a pub round my way for that!

Mine's now 7 years old and 105,000 miles in. I do tend to keep my cars for ever so I splashed to £20k on options on an SD when I bought it.

Re: Loan car

I've not had one for a while but in the past I've had 2 Boxsters(1 with 40 miles on the clock), a Cayman, and 2 Macan's. I think if there's any 911's kicking around they go to more prestige customers than me.

Re: Very Expensive Service

Jesus.

I just had new pads and discs all round on mine at Hatfield OPC. Shade over £2k, which is still £800 more than an an Indie. I let them do it as the warning came on 2 days before the service and MOT. Tyres should be say £1,500 max all round, so that leaves £6.5k for the suspension?

Re: Switch from S to GTS order

Residuals wise the GTS is the best bet.

You're always better off with a higher model, lightly specced than a fully loaded lesser model.
