Hi all,I am new here so thanks for having me. Picked up my 2st 911 last week... a 1992 C4! I just love it....Quick question.... what is the little dial beside the spolier up/down control for? I am guessing it's to do with the 4WD system given the little picture beside it, but can someone tell me exactly how to use it? Also, on roughish road sometimes a little LED light comes on just above it... it this some sort of traction control kicking in??Thanks a million,Adrian

Hi Adrian

Your right about the control, although i'm not sure what it does (?diff lock or something like that?) anyway I thing you only really need it if you park in snow or sand or such like.

And the little light is exactly that too, just says that your driving properly! :wink:

Its the traction control! When stopped turn it to the right to engage the lock. Its for getting out of snow/sand etc. It auto switches off when you reach a certain speed. The light flashes to indicate that the system is controlling the power to the wheels when they lose traction going over bumps etc..
