Removing transport lock (spring strut locking devices) - Turbo and GT2: General

Spring strut locking devices are installed on the front axle of the following new vehicles in order to protect the vehicle during transport (e.g. driving on and off during lorry transport):

This increases the ground clearance of the vehicle.

Tests have demonstrated that spring strut locking devices are not necessary at the rear axle.

With the 911 GT2, the spoiler lip is also removed from the front spoiler.

  • If the spring strut locking devices are not removed, this will seriously impair the handling behaviour and thus the driving safety!
  • The spring strut locking devices must be removed before a test drive and before the vehicle is handed over to the customer!
