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 have a 1999 911 (996) Carrera 2 Cabriolet tiptronic... I am 6'6" tall and wear a size 13/14 shoe! After two unexplainable accidents in my car each involving me ramming the car in front, for no reason, I decided to look into the problem.... While braking slightly harder than normal braking, the top of my shoe hits the accelerator... the harder I brake the more the accelerator works against the ABS... as the tiptronic has no clutch the car will only stop if the brake is released and re-applied or when you hit something in front! I contacted Porsche, they said on three occasions that they knew of the problem but in 2000 they had modified the car to disable the accelerator when braking!!!! They now deny saying that they knew of this problem... and that the cut out was for development reasons...?? I am applying to anyone who may have any information regarding this issue or any way of making these people listen to a genuine problem with severe safety implications... my dealer says he can't help me!?

That is an E-gas feature to reduce emissions, nothing to do with safety as far as i know.
