Press the spoiler lift/lower button very briefly, it will fractionally lower accordingly.

Waving your hand over the front bumper to pop open the frunk (Porsche entry and drive) will apparently fascinate a small crowd at Autocross. I think for a brief second they thought I had jedi powers earlier this month...

"Did you just open that by waving your hand???"

Mine works 100% of the time, although I just hold my hand below the crest, no waving.

Mine only works some of the time, mostly when I don't actually want the frunk opened (like when washing the car, having forgotten to take my key out of my pocket first).

You have to touch it "to the left of the Porsche emblem"

Works everytime using this method.

Yes, you can even share the "Jeti powers", by having a bystander wave their hand as you stand next to them...

I don’t know, guys. I “touched it” to the left of the Porsche emblem and the only thing that happened is the rear wing popped up to the sunroof open position.
