Rear Axle Steering
Rear axle steering increases maneuverability and agility with greater vehicle stability and reduces the turning circle of the vehicle by approx. 23.6 in. (0.6 m) compared to a vehicle without rear axle steering. The following techniques are used, depending on the speed:– Up to approx. 30 mph (50 km/h): “opposite-direction steering motion” for greater agility (virtual shortening of wheelbase).– Above approx. 50 mph (80 km/h): “same-direction steering motion” for greater stability (virtual extension of wheelbase).

Information
If the warning light and warning message appear when driving: fStop immediately in a suitable place.fDo not continue driving.Please contact an authorized Porsche dealer.
For information on warning messages on the multi- function display: fPlease see the chapter “OVERVIEW OF WARNING AND INFORMATION MESSAGES” on page 129.
Electromechanical Power Steering
When the engine is stopped (e.g. when on tow), no power steering assistance is available.Increased force is required for steering.fExercise extreme care when your vehicle is being towed.fHave the fault corrected. Please contact an authorized Porsche dealer.
Changing Air Cleaner
Regular replacement of the filter element is part of servicing.fIn dusty conditions, clean the filter element more frequently and replace it if necessary.fPlease see the chapter “MEASUREMENTS ON TEST STANDS” on page 241.
Changing Particle Filters
Regular replacement of the filters is part of servicing.
Dirty filters can be the cause of reduced air throughput, e.g. the windows can mist up.fHave the filters replaced.Please contact an authorized Porsche dealer.
Information
The particle filters ensure that the fresh air entering the passenger compartment is virtually free of dust and pollen.fIf the outside air is polluted by exhaust fumes, press the recirculated-air button.
Tires and Wheels
The original equipment tires and wheel rims on your Porsche comply with all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Information
The summer tires of your Sports Car have been specially developed and adapted for high performance.The tire characteristics change at low outside temperatures (below 15 °C).This can result in noises when parking or maneuvering at low outside temperatures.
For your safety remember the following:
– Wheel rims and wheel bolts are matched to fit your Porsche.– If you intend to use other than original equipment wheels, be sure that they conform to Porsche specifications for your model. Only tires with the same make and with the same specification code (e.g. “N0”, “N1”...) can be mounted.– The use of wheel rims and wheel bolts that do not meet specifications of the original factory installed equipment will affect the safe operation of your vehicle and affect warranty coverage.– Before you plan on exchanging wheels, or snow tires already mounted on the wheel rims, consult your authorized Porsche dealer. Your dealer has the technical information necessary to advise you which wheel rims and wheel bolts are compatible with the original factory installations.

Wheels with Central Lock
Racing technology for the road. Wheels with a central lock are perfectly normal in motor sport, but are not common on normal roads.Instead of the central lock nuts conventionally used in motor sport, the wheel has an encapsulated central bolt, which is used to fasten it to the wheel hub.
Driving on a race circuit (e.g. sports driving school, club sport events)
Wheels are subjected to significantly higher stresses during extremely sporty driving – particularly when driving on race circuits – compared to driving on public roads. For this reason, all the instructions specified below must always be noted and followed for driving on race circuits.fAlways make enquiries with your authorized Porsche dealer about any other driving and maintenance instructions before driving on race circuits.
The central lock, like all chassis components, requires greater attention while driving on race circuits.fCheck the tightening torque of the central bolts before, if necessary during and after driving on a race circuit.fWhenever wheels are changed, apply some aluminum paste to the trapezoidal thread on the wheel hub or have a second set of greased screws on hand.fNever drive the vehicle without a central lock bolt in the hub.fAll central wheel lock components, such as the central bolt, wheel, wheel hub, wheel hex and brake disk must always be checked for wear and replaced if necessary after driving on a race circuit.
fAxis components subject to high loads must be replaced at intervals specified by Porsche . Always make enquiries with your authorized Porsche dealer about the current stipulations before driving on race circuits.fOther parts such as ball joints, rubber mounts, etc., where wear may result in modified vehicle handling, must be checked and if applicable replaced without delay.
Deferring inspection, maintenance and replacement measures can result in accidents.
This is particularly true if you are clocking up high mileage on race circuits . We recommend that you get an authorized Porsche dealer to carry out these measures.
Components can break or become damaged. Unsuitable wheel sizes or incorrectly dimensioned components in the hub area of accessory wheels , the use of spacers, etc. can impair the overall function of the wheel mounting.fOnly use wheel/tire combinations approved by Porsche.fUnder no circumstances should spacers be used.
Central Bolts
The central bolt and central bolt lock are safety-related components. Always check them for signs of wear and damage.fThe conical surface, trapezoidal thread and inner toothing of the central bolt must not be scratched or cracked.fReplace damaged central bolts.Only use the genuine Porsche central bolts allocated specifically to this vehicle model.fThe conical surface and trapezoidal thread on the central bolt must be perfectly clean.
Tightening torque for central bolts: 443 ftlb. (600 Nm).
Changing a Wheel
fGet an authorized Porsche dealer to change the wheel.
Information
The tools required for changing a wheel (e.g. jack, torque wrench) are not supplied as standard with the car. Your authorized Porsche dealer will be pleased to advise you.
Deferred inspection, maintenance and replacement measures
Inadequate screw connections when using unapproved components and wheels

1. Switch ignition on. 2. Switch on low beam. 3. Open luggage compartment lid. 4. Remove the relevant toolbox. 5. Open up the cover A for the adjusting screw. 6. Place Allen wrench (5 mm) on adjusting screw. 7. Adjust low beam in the corresponding direction.
Towing
Certain state statutes and local ordinances prohibit towing with a chain, rope or even a tow bar. In addition, damage to your vehicle may result from improper procedures. Consult your authorized Porsche dealer for details.
Flatbed towing is the preferred type of towing to be used on Porsche vehicles.
Information
fAlways observe the laws governing towing and tow-starting.fExercise extreme care when your vehicle is being towed.
No power assistance is available on the towed vehicle when its engine is not running. Greater force is therefore required when braking and steering.fExercise extreme care when your vehicle is being towed.
When the engine is not running, adequate lubrication of the transmission is not guaranteed. Observe the following points to avoid damage to the transmission.
Towing a vehicle on all four wheels
We urge that wherever possible, a car transporter or trailer be used to transport a 911 Turbo vehicle that cannot move under its own power. This is the safest way to transport a down vehicle.
For those instances where a car transporter or trailer is not available, the vehicle may be towed on all four wheels only, provided the following
conditions are strictly met. Failure to meet these conditions will result in serious and expensive damage to the PDK transmission.
If the vehicle's transmission or shifter is already damaged, serious damage will result if the vehicle is not towed with all four wheels off the ground.
Porsche cannot be held responsible for damage incurred in cases where a vehicle has been transported on one or both of its axles.
Towing a vehicle on all four wheels:
fThe vehicle must not be towed if the PDK transmission is in emergency operation mode (“ Transm. failure Park vehicle safely”). The vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.fIf a selector lever emergency release was performed, the vehicle must not be towed. The vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.fMove PDK selector lever to position N. To properly engage selector-lever position N on the display and at the selector lever, the engine must be started once before towing the vehicle. The vehicle can be towed as soon as the selector lever is in position N and selector- lever position N appears on the display.fThe vehicle must always roll on all four wheels when towed.The ignition must be switched on so that the brake lights and turn signal lights operate.fDo not exceed a maximum speed of 30 mph (50 km/h).Maximum towing distance 30 miles (50 km).If towing distances are greater, the vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.

The vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.fIf a selector lever emergency release was performed, the vehicle must not be towed. The vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.fMove PDK selector lever to position N. To properly engage selector-lever position N on the display and at the selector lever, the engine must be started once before towing the vehicle. The vehicle can be towed as soon as the selector lever is in position N and selector- lever position N appears on the display.fSwitch ignition off. The ignition key must remain in the ignition lock so that the steering lock does not engage.The control unit must be removed from the ignition lock and the key inserted in vehicles with Porsche Entry & Drive. fPlease see the chapter “EMERGENCY OPERATION – UNLOCKING THE IGNITION KEY/CONTROL UNIT” on page 28.fMake sure that the vehicle is adequately illuminated.
fDo not exceed a maximum speed of 30 mph (50 km/h).Maximum towing distance 30 miles (50 km).If towing distances are greater, the vehicle must be transported with a car transporter or on a trailer.
Pulling out a vehicle stuck in snow, sand, etc.
fAlways pull out the stuck vehicle with the greatest care.fDo not pull out the vehicle abruptly or at an angle. fIf possible, pull the vehicle out backwards in its own tracks.
PDK selector lever emergency release
In the event of an electronics failure, emergency release of the selector lever must be performed in order to move the selector-lever to the N position.
