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.

Hi There Just poicked up my first Porsche - a 1999 Carerra4 Tip in lovely black. Have had a quick drive and haven't stopped smiling but I hgave the first of what I think may be many questions... The spolier on the back shoudl come up at a certain speed - or so I thought - but mine doesn't. When I turn the car on I get a red light on the dash with a down arrow pointing to the spolier. This red light goes out after about 10 secs but the spoiler doesn;t coem up at any speed. I have every bill, invoice, and service doccie for the car - but not the owners manual. Have i already got a problem????

it comes up at about 70 mph I think, there should also be a manual switch, welcome to Pork ownership and to the forum.
Sorry I can't be more specific but my rear spoiler is always up

1. The little dash light is working fine, this goes out after a few seconds once the car moves forward.
2. The spoiler will come up at 75 mph and will generally stay up until you come to a stop. If it does not come up you have a problem.
There is a small button in the drivers footwell right hand side which is hardly noticeable and this is the manual override to put it up or down.

If the light come on and you are doing more than 75 then pull over as it is a warning light that tells you it has not come up.
If you want proof it is working. Find a dual carriage way with a layby. Take it up to crusing speed, pull into the layby and turn teh engine off. Jump out and it will still be up.
It is possible to have an indicator wired up to show you when it is up (they sell kits on eBay, but not needed IMHO)
Also welcome.

Or wait for a sunny day and you can see the reflection of the spoiler.
Or get a fried to come out in another car and observe it going up at 75mph.
As Sean says that light should come on if it is not working at 75 mph+
