TipTronic Switch broken
My father was hooking up when he was driving around a corner with his watch to the tiptronic switch, which after that broke out its mount. He drove to Porsche, they told him this is a frequent problem and the fix is around 1400,- €. After he complained that this is to expensive they came back and asked 600,- € for a fix. Unfortunately he forgot to ask what parts exatly they are going to change. Nevertheless he made and appointment for the week after. He told me about at the weekend when we had a family lunch and after I heard that I asked him to cancel his appointment and I fix it myself. So I bouth an Steering wheel from ebay which came with two tip tronic buttons - I paid 96 ,-€. Installation took less then 5 minutes to swap the modules (just hold by one screw) and - done, so easy! The original broken unit shows a little plastic which was broken. If someone is into DIY it should even be easy to fix this - anyway - the thing is solved for a small buck.
Just thought if someone has the same trouble - just change the whole module.
