Just been watching a few Porsche vids and I watched one that you get when you buy a 996 (old obviously). I never knew you could do the windows up with the alarm key fob and I have only had the car over a year banghead

Funny you should say that as I was at a rental firm a few weeks back and I opened the bonnet and the guy could not believe I had no engine and that's the truth.

Can't you use the in car digital oil check display ? Or do you prefer the dip stick ? I don't check mine each journey , I see you have a 997 is that neccessary ?

Started the car???

Is that a std function of the fob system or an aftermarket add-on?
