Hi,

I'm a new Porsche owner ('07 Carrera S)--I've had a bunch of high end cars but this one, so far, is the max--many questions but one presently burning has to do with (I think) the on-board computer--as soon as I hit 31 mph in 3rd, a warning bell and a message appears on the dash screen alerting me of speed; yet I can drive 40 in 2nd with no warnings elicited--how do I get rid of the (apparently) needless warning? I'm a retired medical doc and am looking forward to many hours of enjoyment with this unit.:)

It sounds like your limit control. My 996 allows three speeds that the limit alarm will trigger. I use them to avoid speeding....or knowing when I'm doing so.
