Hi guys, I recently bought a 997S PDK in Shanghai, China. The car is great but I don't understand a thing in the user manual that came with the car
Does anyone know how I can get my hands on a pdf or electronic copy of the manual online? I've asked my dealership for an English copy repeatedly only to be told they will do what they can, it has been close to 6 months since and no help from them at all. Any guidance would be GREATLY appreciated

Renntech.org has 06, 07, 09 carrera manuals posted for PDF. You have to join to get to them but with all of the other really good tech info the site is worth it.

 

Not only the regular user or owners manual--but you need to get the PCM manual as well.

 

HUGE help, Bigups to you all. Made me a very happy man for the next few hours!

 

How are the driving conditions in Shanghai?

 

Miserable, I only take it out when the F1 circuit has a track day or for a rally. Very dangerous to drive fast here because the people here have no regard for traffic regulations.

 

I've been 4 times already in Shanghai and yes, it's scary to drive there, in any part of China !

I visited the Porsche dealer 3 weeks ago. Nice selection of cars, but few items on the Drivers Selection boutique

100 meters away is the Ferrari dealer and they had an F430 Scuderia Spyder

 

I used to work in Shanghai when we (Intel) had a small lab there and were starting up a test and assembly plant. The company wouldn't let us drive there, we had drivers who carted us around in various Mercedes. I thought about bringing my bicycle over, there are a lot of bicycles but the air quality was often so bad I decided I didn't want to suck in more of it than I had to.

 

Ever fit 6 cars side by side on a three lane road? Shanghai can.. Can even throw in a bicyclist too... I was amaze. Roads are the s**ttiest I ever rode on. Never a smooth road. If one wanted to experience it, just drive on the East bound FWY 10 through San Gabriel Valley in L.A.. Their are no smooth road to race through until you are in Peking or near Canton to Hong Kong. Their, just have couple American's Ben ($100) handy and speed all you wanted. If a police pull you over, Uncle Ben will help you out of the Jam. For the best get out of jail free card, get a military license plate. No toll, no speed limit and local police will pull over to let you pass.
