Rear Spoiler Problem
#16
I agree this is probably the issue.
I have the same problem as well. Been like this for 3 months now. It goes up and down, but it throws the spoiler failure control warning light. I've done some research and people recommend changing the spoiler switches. Not sure if that's the actual problem. Dealer wanted $60 bux for each switch and we would need two of them.
The switches are on the right side, attached to the right tube, very small switches.
The whole idea of a movable wing is dumb, should just be fixed like a GT3.

I was navigating on the net and found a place that overhaul the spoiler system...Anybody ever tried them?

They charge $600. You send them the complete system (rams, pump, lines) and the rebuild it and fill it with new fluid. I believe they give it a 3 year warranty as well.

Do you know if they ship internationally?

My friend had a leaky ram actually, he had a pissing ram. That got me into checking my rams. I’ve noticed a slight leak on one of my rams. Because rams are covered by this plastic protection cap, no one looks under there. I discovered that the bolt at the bottom of the ram had worked itself slightly lose, my guess is from the vibrations. I retightened the bolt and the leak stopped. So, I suggest all of you with working spoilers, check those bolts for some preventative maintenance.

While my car's rams are perfectly operational, this is a cheaper alternative to a new replacement system from Porsche.
Thanks again!
