Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Motor Trend February 2006 Porsche is reportedly ironing out problems with its new twin-clutch transmission. Insiders say engineers are unhappy with the shift quality of the new tranny in full auto mode. The problem now is that Porsche was banking on the PDK to serve double duty for those customers who wanted an automatic and so didn't bother to adapt ZF's smooth six-speed auto-manual, which is why the 911 automatic [and the Cayman] are still five speeders. The irony, of course, is that Porsche was first to prove out the twin-clutch concept, using it in its sports racers during the 1980s.

POST 2Original post

If that's the transmission in the Audi TT with DSG then I love it. It is so much fun down shifting with it. Very fast gear changes. Hoped I could get a Cayman with it but maybe in a few years. Porsche will have to offer it in 911 as well as Cayman if they don't want the flagship's lead set back.

POST 3Original post

If I read this right the Tiptronic will eventually be phased out with either the stick or PDK being the "automatic" offering. I did not think that Porsche would want to offer three different transmission choices. I'd be interested in hearing more about this because I would choose to lease the Cayman w/ the Tip rather than buy it because the PDK may make the Tip totally obsolete and much less desirable even for those who need an automatic. Thanks mpollard, always appreciate your timely info!
