I drove home tonight and found my spoiler at half way up when I shut the car off. I had been in the trunk earlier so it was normal then. It operated up and down just fine for 2-3 cycles when I was investigation.

I am not sure if I cracked 70 mph on my way home on secondary highways.

2001 Boxster.

Any ideas??

Bob

The phenomenon can occur when the car speed balance, for a certain time, with the spoiler programmed retracting or rising speed point. Retract the spoiler manually with the button and keep an eye on it if it is repeated or not.

So, are you saying that this can and probably will occur from time to time? I don't quite understand your explanation. Can you explain further?

Thanks, Bob

When the spoiler is programmed to go up at 120Km/h and down at 80Km/h, and the car speed is fluctuating between those two reference points several times in a short time, it can happen.

Considering the trip that I took that night, what you are suggesting is a possibility. I'll keep an eye on it.

Thanks, Bob
