Removing spring strut locking devices - Carrera and GT3: 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):

• RoW new vehicles with the option "Sports package" P70 (manual transmission) or P71 (Tiptronic transmission)
• 911 GT3

This increases the ground clearance of the vehicle.

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

The spring strut locking devices must be removed before a test drive and before the vehicle is handed over to the customer!

If the spring strut locking devices are not removed, this will seriously impair the handling behavior and thus the driving safety. 

Send the removed spring strut locking devices to the Porsche Warranty Test Office in Ludwigsburg.

Include the spring strut locking devices with the normal warranty goods consignment.
