Imagine telling people don’t do whatever is causing an issue because they are wrong and cars that are cheaper don’t do this. Don’t be a fan boy. You’re sounding like a Tesla owner. If they didn’t want you shifting into first gear while moving they could easily tune the trans to not let you do that. It’s literally that simple. They didn’t so that should tell you something.

@rkw3000 2 года назад

Usually there's no first gear synchro, so you just need to rev it up a little to slip it into first smoothly. But on the PDK thats a different story.

I prefer the yellow 5. 9:10 - yep never get the 14-way seats, he 2-way / 18-way sport plus seats have more padding.

@ronin120 2 года назад

@otpasha 2 года назад

My guess as to the reason why the "OFf" display in the climate control is the way it is, is that the last digit "f" is responsive to the temperature when the A/C is on, for example, "79f" or "26c" as in "Fahrenheit" and "Celsius". I guess Porsche thought it would look even weirder if the degree type was a capital letter, for example, "79F". I'm wondering what would display if the weather were over 100F (37C).

@robsclusive 3 года назад

The 2nd F doubles as Farenheight. So when the ac is on you’ll see 72F

@kabob21 2 года назад

Stop cappin, no it doesn’t. Celsius or Fahrenheit, the climate display only shows the temp numbers.

I drove from Annapolis MD to The Gulf Coast of Alabama when I purchased my 718. A trip of about 1100 + miles. I also have the 14 way seats and experienced zero issues with them. My previous P car was a 2008 Cayman S and drove it thousands of miles without any comfort issues. I am 5’-10 158 lbs , so again, maybe it is a body type issue. Nice video, Take Care

@vrdriller1822 3 года назад

I have the 18 way adjustable. Tightening up the side bolsters to fully support my lower back fixed the problem for me.

@JM-wu8bh Год назад

Good video! 718 GTS owner here. Even with manual transmissions, you don't hit first gear until you have stopped because that puts stress on it. Love that you went with the Brimbo red brakes... the step up is an $8600 option which is crazy. I think the S or base model is better as a daily driver than my car. I agree about the seats. They get painful!

@ajc5370 Год назад

@JM-wu8bh Год назад

@duckbizniz663 Год назад

Appreciate your honest opinion. A comfortable driver seat is important on those long drives.

@okwrx1580 3 года назад

These are all spot on. I have the same spec/color. The OFf is silly. The 2nd to 1st shift definitely has a "clunk". For me, the little cubbies behind the seats take near acrobatic like skills to get into. Also, my auto start/stop seems to always be disabled (which I like), but makes me wonder if a previous owner programed it out. Otherwise its a great car! Great videos!

@DriveMore718 3 года назад

@SimonInSanDiego Год назад

Who changes into first before you’re at a complete stop?

@rembo183 3 года назад

By the way, I was told this by a driving instructor at the Porsche Driving /Experience Center in Atlanta. I was downshifting to first stopping and he said shift into neutral coast to stop than start in first after stopping. It’s easier on transmission and engine and it’s cheaper to fix brakes than transmission in a Porsche!😊👍🏻. If you can afford a few hundred bucks that Porsche driving school is fantastic! You can pick your car and an instructor drives with you as passenger giving you tips. I picked a similar car you have several years ago- 718 S Boxster. Great car to drive!

@adsupra3221 3 года назад

well, I never learn or drive automatic transimmision, and on the older cars I started to drive it was 'forbidden' to use 1st shift to ride except starting movement. so this habbit stays with me and I never use 1st gear to stop. I have brakes for it. so I think the problem with 1rs gear is not in transmission but between seat and steering wheel...

Does the ride quality have anything to do with the large rims? I have a 718 Cayman with 20 inch rims and I have a feeling that is what is causing the issue with the ride quality. There is not enough tire cushion between the wheel and the road, because of the super low profile tires.

I have never thought shifting to 1ST gear was advantageous, if anything, just the opposite. The 981 2015 Cayman I owned was very 'comfy' so can't help you there. The seats were quite firm, but not to their determent. Clear view to the dash gauges, check. I traded for a 911 and of course, their OFF marker on the air conditioning reads like yours OFf and I don't find that a problem at all. I'd bet there is a reason for it, so will keep my eyes open. Good luck...

@justinmaccreery2490 2 года назад

The cause of the display disparity is probably the build of the display itself. Imagine, if you will, construction of the seven-segment display. It's a collection of LED lights; not a pixelated screen. Then, imagine sticking a bunch of those little LED lights that make up the 7 segments of different sizes and shapes in a coordinated, consolidated collection that makes up the entire screen you see with temp, right and left, then the fan speed indicator bars. Each is a single LED, simplifying the overall system complexity. The third digit LED's probably wouldn't fit due to conflicting with other individual lights. Either that, or maybe they're shared with another, unseen in your example, display of other information. Either way, it's the simple build of the component that's causing that issue IMO. Thanks for the tough fought video. Sorry about your phone... Cheers from Charlotte

@choerger Год назад

it’s OFf because in markets that use Celsius, there are half degree increments. 21.0 21.5 22.0. The smaller 0 and 5 indicate the half degree instead of a decimal point. Hence, the display formatting is 2 larger digits and one small digit.

Why did it take more than 2 minutes to start the list? I don’t give a crap about a sunburn you got shooting another video. Is the phone damaged due to the car? No - Who cares about your broken phone or what kind of phone you will replace it with? I own a 718 Cayman since 2019, and I have driven it 25k miles so far. I don’t experience the 1st gear clunk because I have the manual tranny. Your complaint about the ride quality is total BS. This is a sports car, so it is supposed to handle like a sports car. If you want a soft ride, get a Cadillac or a BMW. You should have spent more $ to get the seats with extra bolstering on the sides. My seats only have the manual adjustments but they are the most comfortable seats I have ever experienced in my 45 years of driving.

@David-nb2bc 2 года назад

I totally agreed. He should have got the 6 speed unless he doesn't know how to drive a manual? For a car like to Cayman, I would ALWAY get a manual. As for the rest of his complains, it is all nip picking and doesn't affect what this car is actually build for. Who care if that's a small f. It is a driver's car and that's all you need to know. Take it to the track and this is where the car really shines.

It’s more of a track thing, if you’re tracking the car and come into a hairpin turn then you usually go into first to keep the power out of the turn. If I put the car in sport + mode it automatically slams it into first even if I’m just driving normal. I’ve had a a lot of people ask me about this but I think it’s people that don’t race the cars or have never driven a Porsche on the track.

@dailydrivensedans4875 2 года назад

As far as im aware All duall clutch transmissions have a clunky first gear..ie-volkswagon/audi/vag,, nissan/gtr, porsche, The only way to too eliminate the lower gear clunk is by shifting with more load on the gears....(j have found if i want too have a clean shift down to first or second by downshifting at either a higher rpm or by braking harder(more load) and that tends too eliminate clunk 100%///or in the cars auto shift mode case it will slow down the gear change(release the clutch slower. (Try understanding that it is 100% just a manual that is automated.) if u shift fast in a manual at a low load its very clunky. But if u shift slow its much smoother

@@zryhmer how’s the lumbar support with the 2-way Sport Plus seats. is there any at all? concerned about the lower back, without having any adjustability

@zryhmer Год назад

@@stealthhtm23 for me, it’s good, but I sit more upright. The lumbar support in the 12 or 18 way is adjustable.

@stealthhtm23 Год назад

@@zryhmer yes, of course. but I was wondering if the 2-way had any lumbar support at all. unfortunately the closest P dealer is 4 hours away, so can’t just pop in and try them out lol

Boxsters (at least), have always had the OFf display. Enjoy it.

nothing in this complaint video has any merit. hate is a strong word.. annoyed might be more appropriate. the small f, whatever.. really? the hard ride? its a sports car dummy. buy a corvette or a minivan. the downshift to 1st? you shouldn't be engine braking. bad practice. the little cubbies? engineers were kind enough to make use of some wasted volume, you can store weird stuff in there you don't need often, or just ignore them. whiny, that's what it is. gray rev counter? easily changed. did you order that?

@jenlivernois Год назад

I was bit disconcerted about not only the mispronouncing…and downshifting but the word “hate” now makes sense having he directly insulted me on here…for everyone to read so maybe him using the word “hate” is often used in his vocab

@turtron 2 года назад

I’ve never downshifted into first in my life.

The little “f” is for Fahrenheit. And the numbers are bigger than the display spot for the “f”.

If the suspension is to hard then the fix is easy. It is just the key. Next morning don’t grab to the porsche key but take instead the buik key.

Every Cayman I have driven has had a ridiculously stiff ride, and uncomfortable seats. Still love em though.

@dieterwolf9549 3 года назад

I have a 2020 Macan S, which unlike the Base Model, also has a grey background rev counter. You are the first owner that has voiced the same complaint. In bright light it gets completely washed out. WHY WHY WHY, didn't any of the engineers drive this car on a sunny day ???

@BrailsfordsRides 3 года назад

Nice talking with you in the chat today, they are compact I imagine they are a ton of fun The little F would piss me off too lol

your seats make you off your car every one hour and that is a good thing.

I'm starting to get a few people telling me that isn't normal, I might have another dealer check it out.

@TheMyoMimi 3 года назад

@@DriveMore718 you said its when you downshift to first right? When I'm showing down and coasting to a stop I typically put the car in neutral. You can do this by pulling on both paddle shifters at the same time. I'm rarely in first more that a few seconds.

@fahler14 2 года назад

As someone that drives a manual everyday for 15 years… you never down shift to 1st gear. Once you are completely stopped…. You start over in 1st gear. Rolling stop signs are always done in 2nd. Im guessing your shifting before you are completely stopped, kind of like when people go into “drive” as they are going backwards from “reverse” ….. both are terrible for the car. I have been to a porsche and bmw driving day on racetracks. Why buy an automatic and not utilize it…. The car is a better driver than you. It knows when to shift. The transmissions are amazing and can shift faster than I ever could shift my 6 speed. I just don’t understand the in between bullshit . I’m guessing it is for pro drivers that are actually smarter than the car. I just would never use paddles or an automatic shifter .

@justinmaccreery2490 2 года назад

Really, you never downshift into 1st? ... Mmm, if you were driving a 718 GTS 4.0 and get to 45 in 1st gear, knowing the power comes above 4,000 rpm, wouldn't you want to drop it to first approaching a 25mph corner? ... or when you're trying to trickle into a steep driveway at an angle, wouldn't you find it advantageous then?
