Any way to disable the 65 mph beep on my 01 996?

It's a function of the onboard computer, go through the menu and find "limit"


Switching the acoustic warning signal off






f Select “LIMIT active” with the operating lever.


f Push operating lever forward.

That's just an alarm that can be set for any speed through the OBC. Yours happens to be set for 65.


You can either page through and turn it off or set if for something more realistic. Mine is set at 85 just to give me a heads up when I'm pushing it on the highway...
