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.

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

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What is this and should I be concerned? The same symbol on my X's Cayenne is on non-stop

POST 3Original post

Common bro, read the manual. You never used cruise control yet?

POST 4Original post

That's your IMS warning light. It means the engine is about to blow up. It's colored green because that's what it's going to take a lot of to fix it.

POST 5Original post

Mr Quickie: You need to read more about your car.

POST 7Original post

fpena944 is NOT joking... it is your built in IMS indicator....except the green light means it's all good........................... sorry couldn't help myself.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I never imagined a 911 having cruise control! A sports car is to drive, if I wanted cruise control I'd buy a luxury car a la Mercedes I understand not having luxuries in the name of being a driver's car but fna get rid of the ridiculous cruise control and give me navigation instead ... learn something new every day

POST 9Original post

Turn the cruise control off and make sure it's off when you shut down (remove key from ignition). Cruise control should remain off when you restart the car. Mine sometimes comes back on for no apparent reason however so I sympathize with the OP.

POST 10Original post

Quotes source post: 8853453

Well...considering that a Kia, Hyndai, Honda civics etc all come with cruise control I wouldn't consider it a luxury car feature.....

POST 11Original post

Quotes source post: 8853453

Speed control is crucial to me to avoid speeding tickets. Fun Fact: Cruise control not available on Aston Martin DB7 for the reason you state.

It indicates the position of the moon, relative to the earth. This is so you'll know which way to lean to counteract the moon's gravitational pull when heading into a turn at high speed.

Quotes source post: 8853548

+1. Hey Marc, do you know if Phil is still driving his Audi TT, or has it been replaced with something newer?

POST 15Original post

Actually, the green symbol indicates that someone has not yet read their owners manual.

Quotes source post: 8853386

That's torture for lazy people (who don't read the manual) and I love it!

POST 18Original post

These types of flippant answers would never appear in the 997 forum.

If mine was the first post I wouldn't have done that. But he got the answer already so I decided to have a little fun with it.

Hey Fernando, Read my sig. Everyone here knows that RL is 1/3 useful advice, 1/3 smart alec comments, and 1/3 what the hell is that. Well, almost everyone.

I miss cruise control. The one option I dont have that I wish I did. I even tried to get it added on and was thwarted. -td

I didn't realize there were two of them in the world!!! Phil will love this, I'll have to forward it to him!

POST 24Original post

He still has the TT and loves it, although he is now talking about buying another Porsche in a few years, as he does miss not driving his C4S.

"I can't believe my brand new car burns oil on start up when I park on a side hill. I'm going to yell at my disrespectful dealer until they pay for it," said the 997 owner. "You should complain to the dealer more until they pay for it," said the other 997 owner who doesn't understand boxser engines or basic mechanics. "You paid $100k and they should respect you for that."

Buying another Porsche for the next guy.... 1st dibs!

POST 30Original post

Quotes source post: 8854533

Absolutely true!! I really do miss all of you! And my Porsche. I figure when the economy comes back when I'm around 75 I will buy another 911. Yes, I'm driving the Audi TT - I've had it for 3 1/2 years and all of 17K miles and I really do enjoy the thing. It's perfect (of course) and a fun car with the top down. Wayne, thanks for forwarding the post!! Loved it!! But mine's still the original

POST 31Original post

Well, look what the cat dragged in..... Phil, where have you been, how's the practice doing?

POST 32Original post

Quotes source post: 8854841

Hey, don't call me "the cat". I have a name.

POST 33Original post

For what it is worth - the Audi TT does not have an indicator light that cruise control is on (or off).

POST 34Original post

Quotes source post: 8854841

Wayne, you're the cat, but I'm what you dragged in. Practice is fine - just put an electronic medical record in the office, so pretty busy. I haven't kept up on the board really since I sold my Porsche. But, I'm beginning to get the itch again. Uh oh. You may be seeing more of me!!

POST 35Original post

Quotes source post: 8855612

That's one of the reasons I bought it - I didn't want to be too confused.

POST 36Original post

If you push the button on the end of the lower right side steering column stalk the IMS failure indicator will go off and your IMS will be safe. You also lose 30HP. To increase power, push the button again and the IMS failure indicator will come on. LOL! I needed a chuckle today.

POST 37Original post

I have a similar question.... There's a little window in the bottom of my speedometer which shows a zero when I'm stopped but as soon as I start moving the numbers start to get bigger....and then they get smaller again as I slow down. What's that all about? Does it mean my IMS is about to fail?

POST 38Original post

Quotes source post: 8857651

Happened to mine also - but very infrequently (since I only drove it around 500 miles a year)!! Could be a significant problem with yours, especially if it occurs often.

POST 39Original post

Hey Phil, good to see you back. Is this the Annual "little green clock thingy" Reunion thread?
