Please, does any one know the cost of the module that is under the passenger seat and commands the retractable spoiler.
Thanks for your answers

I got quoted $245 several years ago and proceeded to figure out how to fix mine. I hear prices are up since then. I have a working spare if you want it outright or exchange for your's. P/N is 911 618.112.00. Mine is high on the bulkhead in the passenger footwell. Are you sure your's is under the seat?
What are your symptoms?

Thanks Springer3!!!
my symptoms were that the spoiler sometimes didn´t come back at a full stop,my mechanic repaired mine and told me to test it, if the test goes fine he wants 160 U$S for the repair - I haven´t paid him yet but it seems to work fine.
The cost of the repair is high but a new one plus taxes and shipping to Buenos Aires would be around 400 U$S or more.
If the repair doesn´t work I will contact you for the spare

The spoiler modules can get intermittent. Mine was intermittently staying up for several months before it failed hard, and the wing stayed up all the time. The switching transisters can leak just enough current that one of the two relays sometimes operates at the wrong time, and sometimes operates properly.
You can have a larger-than-normal battery drain if the spoiler module is getting weak.

I had to change my battery just 2 weeks ago, the replaced one (15 months old) was as dead as a zombie.
I hope that this repaired module plus the new battery gets things right
