I have problems heel/toeing in certain cars, including my Spyder, due to the pedal placement unless I was braking really hard. I don't know how people do it well driving at 5/10ths given the distance between those pedals. I've got super narrow feet, but I can't imagine that makes much of a difference. Do most people adjust the pedals or do they just twist the crap out of their feet?

That said, I have to say that I didn't love the rev match in the Spyder, so when driving at less than 8/10ths, I'd often rev match without braking at all like I do on my motos.

Porsche usually has a pretty decent placement of the pedals for heel and toeing. Although I agree,shoes make a ton of difference. Buying a gas pedal extension made for that purpose also works really well!
I usually pinch the brake pedal with my toes and rotate my heel for the blip. It seems easier than using half and half,meaning half of your foot in its length on the brake pedal and half to blip the throttle.

Back to the OP's question, I learned heel/toe 50 years ago and love the rev match feature of the GT4 on the track. I don't want to go back. I'd also like to hear the results of the OP's trip to the dealer.

You clearly don't see the ironic nature of my post.
Something isn't working, go get it fixed from dealer its under warranty
But MANY (most?) would say this is a feature that the car doesn't even NEED.
And therefore we shouldn't even see a post with it being an issue.
This car is EASY to heel toe in.
If you want a hard car to heel toe try a G body or early air cooled. Pedal position is FKed up. 964 and 993 are easy.

I've tried with my heel and never been able to get the hang of that. I seem to lack the feel and have trouble been consistent with the throttle input. I think I shouldn't have waited until I had nice cars in my late 30s before I tried to learn to heel/toe. I should have started way back when I was driving crap cars I didn't really care too much about.

It's never too late to learn. You'll love it once you get the hang of it! Try and do it at higher RPMs first,it's a lot easier. That's what heel and toe is meant for anyway. At lower RPMs is a bit trickier as you have to be a lot more accurate with your input and you might overshoot it at first.
Get proper shoes and an extender and it will be a piece of cake.

**** me for wondering if anyone else has had a feature of their car fail.

To OP: too many d***s posting on this thread. Try Planet-9.

I have a Cayman GTS, no issues, but interested in what you find out.

mooty

Spyerx

Please do!

I'm not going to call anyone names but the behavior certainly is disappointing, kind of makes me remember why automotive forums are always my least favorite.

One should not take ones self so seriously.

VLJ

Telling someone they take themselves too seriously doesn't make it ok to be rude...

I've supported you a few posts back. I know the situation sucks and it can happen to any of us. Unfortunately(or fortunately-depending on how you look at it) nobody has had this problem. It is very good you have brought it to the forum's attention. That's what this forum is all about.
Other than that,it's what you have been advised : the car is under warranty,it's the dealer's problem now. Please let us know the outcome so we can all learn.

The rest : the jokes and the OT came because there's nothing else to discuss until someone comes and says they know of this problem or you bring an update from your dealer. Don't take it personal...
