Yes, my other Porsche (other than a 718 GT4) is a 991.2 C2 with 7MT. I specifically did not get it with Sport Chrono so I had no auto-blip, even in Sport mode. I had to give up having a Sport+ mode.

in a gt4, auto blip is off unless you turn it on. It only rev matches down shifts. It’s actually quite nice. It also kicks in at the gate, before you engage the gear so if it spikes to the redline that might be a strong hint you shouldn’t let off the clutch pedal ….

No graunches/grinds in the last several hundred miles with many 1>2 shifts at relatively high--and increasing every 100 miles--rpms.

I have been getting the 1-2 grinds pretty much every other time I drive the car since new. I am currently at 880 miles and Ive pretty much lost count of how many times I felt the "grunch". The frequency seems to be decreasing but not by much. It happens even when I granny shift ![Frown](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif)
Hoping it goes away with mileage. My plan is to take it in to dealer at around 1k to have them take a look. Did not experience this issue with my 981 GT4 at all. It's pretty much the same transmission as the 981 gt4 no?

Happened to me in my 718S when I first got it. I felt it was a little clunky, but it smoothed out after about 1k miles. During that time, I was just very careful with changing gears.

Hello from Georgia. Reporting the grind in my 2021 Spyder. I've been driving manuals all my life so it's not user error for anyone who is even a decent driver. I've experienced the grind a handful of times in 1600 miles and as the miles increase, it appears to be diminishing. It first happened around 700 miles and then once every couple hundred miles thereafter but always below 5k rpm.The most recent grind occurred when I was making a left turn through an intersection and I swear I inadvertently pulled "in" (sightly) left on the shifter as I shifted into second midway through the turn. My two cents is that there is something happening when one isn't hitting the dead center of the gate....

It's happened to me four times in my 2020 GT4. Hope it goes away. Sounds godawful when it happens.

Makes one wonder if this is something misadjusted in the shifter linkage.
By why would it get bettter/go away instead of getting worse over time?
