Help-It's Driving me Crazy
 
I am getting the "limit exceeded" message at 60 MPH. I have set the function to 100 MPH and selected the "activate" box, but it is still chiming every time I hit 60. Ideas? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Slow down, dude! The car is worried about your safety!

Come on!!! 60 in 6th gear. I still have another 500 RPM before I redline!

Bump the speed that the alarm activates to about 160 mph,

that way you wont hit it "very often"...hilarious

BTW, the highest it will let you set it at is 186 mph (don't ask me how I know).:D

left hand side of the steering wheel, push in the bottom toggle dealio. Then move it down till you see Limits on your dash. push in again. adjust from there.

Did that. It used to ding at 70 MPH, I set it to 110 MPH and now it dings at 60 MPH....

you sure you moved it to set it? If not, swing by a Porsche shop, they can tell you 5 seconds. Or.... Or... take your negative battery terminal off for 5 mins and just reset the darn thing.

i think you have it set in kph

100 kph = 60mph....

OK - I got it figured out. The PCM unit has an entirely different set of speed limiters built into the computer system that show on the Nav screen. You can set them to go off at three different speeds. It's accessed via the "trip" command button.
