I hated the thought of this feature when I first heard of it, but a hip injury made heel/toeing painful so I gave it a whirl. Now I absolutely love it and hit Sport + Exhaust buttons every time I turn on the car.

The M2 just blips too soon by the time you let out the clutch the revs have dropped and the car jerks unless you let out the clutch really fast with the down shift. I have a M2 comp coming in two weeks will be interesting to see if they have improved it . Hope they also make the shift linkage less clunky! Carl

You can. Simply add the T Design plug & play module. Defaults to last selected modes. I'm a very pleased customer.

Myself and a few other have had intermittent problems where the "blip" doesn't work. Specifically on track. Software issue possibly?

You know, if you guys would learn how to heel toe, you could hear the throttle blip on every manual car you own. This thread makes my soul sad.

Forgot to mention......all my cars are manuals. Sold my PDK. Always heel/toe on track. (much more reliable) Just curious of how many others may been experiencing the same issue with their GT4's.

Thanks for the tip. Didn't know this existed. I've been annoyed by having to push Sport or Sport+ and the binoculars every time since I bought a '15 911 GTS. Hope this works!

I took mine to the dealer once for this and in a week they said they couldn't duplicate it, failed for me three times on the drive home after picking up the car.

It just wouldn't be a car forum if there weren't buttholes like you .

There wont BE car forums once the manufacturers finish outfitting cars for people who cant drive...hopefully you can spec your self driving car with an auto blipper to impress your friends.
