Anyone know what the official line from Porsche is on driving with this fault?

In the UK I'd expect the official line to be that you shouldn't be going fast enough for the spoiler to rise anyway. :grin:

Seriously, there's a fault so I'm sure they'd say you should get it rectified. It's probably just a duff microswitch.

Safety wise I wouldn't worry at any 'two figure' speed.
 
Found what I was looking for :thumb:

Don't exceed the posted speed limit if the spoiler mechanism fails. Can we extrapolate from that that if the spoiler is working correctly we can go at whatever speed we like?

If the law allows it or you're on track.
