Thanks for the info.

Vexing - I will go on a test drive tonight and see if I can get any action. If no, then I'll bug my service guy next time I have to go in for something.

Well I guess I must have been a little unluckier than most on here - I've had the car 11 months and covered approx 7,500 miles including three Porsche Club UAE track days at the Autodrome. I've had the oil changed after each track day and the brake fluid once (it's hot in Dubai) after the 3rd when I got Porsche to do an early first service. I've listed below the issues that I've had;

1). PCM system went nuts and kept shutting itself off, then on, then off, then on, then off......

- Porsche replaced the entire PCM system within 24hrs no issues since

2). PDK issue (previously posted on here)

- Again Porsche sorted it all out within 48 hrs and could not have been nicer

3). Right hand steering wheel paddle doesn't upshift and needs replacing

- No part in stock when car was serviced and as I can use the left hand paddle I'm not too worried

Am I at all concerned about any of the above, not at all, Porsche have been fantastic and dealt with everything in a professional and expedient manner - I'm simply enjoying owning and driving an cracking car and would urge anyone considering buying one to do the same.
