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.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I thought that I would share this information with fellow 987.2 PDK owners. At various stages my Cayman has been less than smooth in the throttle action and gear shifts. It used to clunk, in particular when slowing down. Resetting the gearbox and throttle body made a huge difference to the refinement of the gearbox. PDK FACTORY RESET PROCEDURE 1. Turn on engine, turn off A/C and any other systems like PCM. Let the engine run for three minutes or more. 2. Turn on A/C and wait another 3 minutes with the engine still running. 3. Turn off engine, remove key, exit, close and lock the car and wait one minute. 4. Restart Car and PDK is now reset to factory default THROTTLE BODY RESET Turn the ignition to the ‘on’ position but the engine not started, for one minute. Then cycle the ignition off and back on again. Leave it on for 30 seconds. The throttle body can be heard resetting. After this turn it back off and start the car.

Just address to the dealer and let them see what's the problem in your car.
