Hi,
still getting used to my Cayman R and now that the weather is improving getting more chances to test its capability, which is fun BUT I still have some concerns about the braking. Since moving from my R8 I've come to accept that the Porsche braking is less digital and more down to driver feel and actual pedal....which I now quite like
however, I'd just like to check that what I'm experiencing is normal.....
OK, when travelling at 60-70 mph (or maybe a little more) and applying braking it seems to initially bite and start to slow and then there's a worrying pause where the car seems to have no braking applied at all - even though my foot is well down on the pedal, this isn't ABS type stutter (or not like any other ABS system I've ever come across) which is usually a very quick series of judders. It happens if I'm in Sport or Sport Plus modes too.
As I live 3 hours away from my nearest dealer and dont want to drive over there uneccessarily anyone got any thoughts or comments? I mean the car does stop but I am concerned that this feels like a loose caliper or similar......
Car is 10 months old, 3500 miles and Cayman R PDK
Thanks, Colin
