Default 997 (2011) Tranny Question ...

For the collective ....

I'm really new to the 997 world so pls bear with me...


I live on a steep slope with a traffic light at the top of the very steep pitch...

If i miss the light and i have to stop and wait for the green i take my foot off the break and hit the gas the 997 does not engage and kinda either stalls or goes backward and then engages....

I have been living on this mountain for a long time. I have had a Honda s2000, Jeep 2005 , a honda crv 2009 and a mercedes 2009 and none of then handled this task with so much difficulty...

Does my 997 have a tranny issue or is that a pdk thing i need to adjust too?

Any help would be of great help....

For any Montrealers who know the city i live on Clarke and the bouleveard so you prob know how steep this hill is...

Thanks for your imput

Cheers
Howard

The 997.2 has a "hill assist" feature. On a slope, it will engage the brakes for approximately 2 seconds when you remove your foot from the brake. You will need to give it a little more gas than usual to overcome the brake resistance.

A tall one can sit in the passenger seat, but if you put two in the back, they have to be really small.

And if you have a cab, you might have to keep the top up cause the wind messes up their hair (sometimes the wig blows off).
