Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

If you want it extended you could use the switch on the fuse box and then pull the fuse to keep it deployed.

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 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Can the spoiler retract be altered to come down at stop as it did in the 964?

POST 2Original post

I am not sure I understand the question. On the 996, the spoiler should automatically deploy at 72 MPH and should automatically retract at about 35 MPH.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok -- I'm looking to have it retract when I come to a stop -- for "cool look" at the traffic lights -- no practical purpose at all. My 964 did that and it was neat.

POST 4Original post

It is retracted in you avatar. If you want it extended you could use the switch on the fuse box and then pull the fuse to keep it deployed. Is that what you were asking?

POST 5Original post

I just thought of something.... maybe this is an Australian-American translation thing. Do you see it as extended or retracted in your avatar? Tim and I might be looking at it "upsidedown" to the way you see it from "down there"???

POST 6Original post

Frank, good point about "retract vs. extend." Michael, you could do the "spoiler swithc" mod, which is buying a Turbo spoiler switch) (button) and install it in the dash "horseshoe." Then you could hit hte switec to make the spoiler extend (raise up).

POST 7Original post

He wants to know if you can put the retract point at 0mph. Cripes, four beers in me and I caught it....maybe it's the four beers.

POST 8Original post

I think he wants it to remain deployed (up) (extended) until he comes to a stop then retract. wonder if a guy had one of those fancy computer things he could reprogram the speed it would deploy and retract...

POST 10Original post

Damn, I gotta switch from the hard stuff to beer, but I think one more pint, OK maybe two more, and I would have gotten it too!

POST 11Original post

Mine doesnt retract at 35mph... i know it goes up at 75 I though or close to it. During freeway driving, I'll go down to lets say 65, and I'll notice its back down ( through reflection of bigger cars)..?

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

GRN996 translated correctly! Any ideas?

POST 13Original post

This "may" be programmable by the dealer. Call them and ask.

POST 14 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I will ask next time I'm in for a service at 120,000 K -- in a few months time
