WE83 – Check Front Level Sensors, Left and Right – 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder

118/14

 

Vehicle type: 918 Spyder

Model Year: 2015

Concerns: Front level sensors, left and right

 

Information:

This is to inform you of a voluntary Workshop Campaign on the above-mentioned vehicles. It is possible that the sensors for the levelling system on the front axle of the relevant vehicles may be damaged or incorrectly positioned in relation to the control arms.

If a sensor is damaged, a fault entry may occur in the PASM control unit over the service life of the vehicle and, as a result, a “Chassis system fault” warning message may appear in the instrument cluster. This fault type may occur after only a short time if a sensor is incorrectly positioned.

 

Action Required:

Check the front level sensors, left and right.

 

Affected vehicles:

The VIN(s) can be checked by using PIWIS Vehicle Information link to verify if the campaign affects the vehicle. This campaign is scope specific to the VIN! Failure to verify in PIWIS may result in an improper repair. This campaign affects 24 vehicles in North America.
