Sorry to hear that. Got a pdk box on my gts. Fingers crossed, 300 miles so far so good.

Keep us posted about the issue.

1100 miles and perfect, allot better than the PDK in my old Cayman. Hopefully just a blip which will get sorted quickly.

Ditto here, 1100 miles and absolutely perfect, seems to be shifting more crisply as I add more miles.

Hopefully a simple software glitch for your OPC to fix.

Similar on my 09 boxster pdk. Software update and reboot sorted it.

Read on an other thread about a 991 Turbo same gear box issues and GB has to go back to factory as the OPC cannot look at them or open them . Not sure why but no mention off a new car in this instance

Have they lent you a car in the meantime or are you on the bus?
