Spoiler not extending

[Yves]

I never saw the spoiler come up,
after that the car was idle for 3 weeks, the spoiler came up when I was driving and I thought OK, it fixed itself …
But now even at 120 it does not come up …
I can raise it manually, but it does not seem to work automatically.
Is that a setting I overlooked somewhere?

now i'm wondering how i can make it manual only actually...

 

[Yves]

@Diego Hence my question it never comes up … only once I did see it come up but then the next day it stayed down even at 130km/h …

 

[Diego]

Select Sport + and it will come up at 90 km/h. Open the roof and it will come up at 90 km/h also in normal.
In normal with roof closed it comes up at 150 km/h.
This is my experience so far..

In normal it should come out at 110 and I drive 120 to 130 on the highway … never lifts …
I did not take the Chrono package no sport+ (only for suspension I have sport+)

That AI generated graph is terrible. The words are ok though. The German original gives a much better idea of the lines (e.g. Sport Plus in the AI version has 2 different lines for the spoiler going up! Nothing at 150km/h, despite that being important in the original graph)

Here's the original German showing 150km/h for Normal and Sport deployment to the top level.

I've measured Sport Plus at 94km/h, which is a bit higher than the original German graph implies.

OK I definitely did not drive 150 when it came out so I will investigate what triggers it or not, I did not pay much attention to it till just last week

 

[krissrock]

are you sure you're just not seeing it?
The wing comes up as low as 30mph .... but it's often NOT visible from the mirror...

I assumed here we were talking about the full extension, as it does indeed deploy half way - 'Eco' - much earlier, as the graph shows.

I can just about see the top of the spoiler when it's in the lower position, but I have to be looking for it.

 

[Diego]

I can confirm that at 150 km/h in Normal position the spoiler is full extended, in Sport+ and in every driving mode with the roof open (completely) the spoiler is fully extended at 90 km/h
Removed the "IA Translated" graph from my post. The German one is correct.

 

[Yves]

Thanks, yes I saw the spoiler in eco mode as well but it will not do that. I will now try with the roof open to trigger it at lower speed so …

 

[Yves]

OK, so yes the speed is 150 not 110 And yes if you open roof it is 90 …
