I hate my passenger One touch up feature. I would rather get my head stuck in the window then to have this feature. I feel like the window is messing with me on purpose.

Thats all I have for now, back to figuring out if Irma is going to blow my house down.

Thanks for listening..

I'm with you. The ratio of times I mistakenly actuate the feature versus times I purposely doc is roughly 1000:1

P.s. Stay safe. Irma looks to be a bad lady.

This made me smile. I can never get that feature to work right too.

No it is working correctly.... you use it, you are pissed off, it is working as designed.

I just went through Harvey in Victoria Texas. Get the hell out of there now, and take your Porsche with you. Good luck with One Touch too, whatever that is??

So strange the way Porsche designed since the passenger window in the cabs is one touch up.

I think I'm going to leave mine at the covered parking garage at airport. Supposedly my garage would be flooded with a Cat 1 storm, and Irma is projected to be a Cat 3 when it hits here. Who knows.

I'm curious--what is the issue with this feature? I have it on my cabriolet and don't have any problems.

Cab and coupe operate differently - cab is one touch up both sides, coupe only driver's side.

Not much a vent re the switch but Irma is another matter: this is what we are here for @TECNO!

I've gotten used to the feature on the coupe but I greatly dislike the cheap plastic switch. I feel like I'm going to break it when I hold it up; I would love to see someone make something more functional, or even retro like the switch on the G cars ;-p

@TECNO, thinking the good thoughts for you and yours vs Irma. Make sure that you stay in touch here when you come up for air...

Right, but OP and other guys are complaining about the feature. Just curious what is it about the one-touch-up function that they don't like?
