Still working on my HPDE car, got the dents out, repainted last week. Next cosmetics will be racing stripes, light tint. Lots of little performance mods have been done, with coilovers next.

Well, took it to the shop for some finally approved warranty work;

- water pump
- keyless entry
- FAL
- fuel door actuator
- spoiler deployment retraction

All seemed to manifest (except the water pump) in the last couple of weeks.

Thank God for the extended warranty.

Any issue with the hood vibrating at very high speeds?

That is quite a hit list to just occur in the last couple of week. If you don't mind could you mention whom you went with for the extended warranty.

Dang 2F, that’s a long laundry list for a Porsche so young.

Hope it’s not waiting for parts for weeks or months!

^ Hmmm, you replaced your PDK transmission? If so, can you tell us what led to that?

After doing about 30 passes on 850 WHP and stickier Tires, my original transmission started to have a slight whining noise when rev matching downshift 2nd to first gear.
We will open to see what went wrong, maybe a bearing, we arent sure at all.

I did run 255/35R20 R888R up Front and Mickey 305/35R19 in back
