I wanted to know if this is possible as I like the look of the spoiler up, functional or not and get annoyed with having to manually press the button everytime.

It should stay up until you restart the car.

I don't think there is a way to keep it always on..... it would be like trying to keep a C2S always in sport mode.

Just turn on the car and tap the button before you switch gears.

I'm sure there's a way to keep the relay or solenoid in the spoiler deployed state. You just need to find out what signal is derived off the the spoiler switch and fool it so it activates when you power up the car.

Might easier just doing what 'mobonic' suggested in his reply.

Viagorsche specifically targets this problem. Ask your dealer for the blue fuel additive.

There is probably a setting in the computer that can be set with PIWIS. Ask your dealer. I looked through the settings once with my service rep and there is a ton of stuff in there. For instance, I had my annoying seatbelt chime turned off, even though countless posts have said you can't.

I like the look of the spoiler being up also. on my 993s you could put the spolier up then just unplug the motor. every time I took them in for service I'd get it back with motor plugged back in! I've looked on my 997 but there is so much stuffed in that small opening that I haven't been able to locate the harness. I assume once located then simply unplugging it would work. has anyone done this?

Not feeling it, buy hey to each his own
I'd say just get a fixed wing like a Misha GT2 - Would look much hotter.
