Default spoiler speed?

Just checking to see at what speed does your spoiler go up? Mine goes up at 65 mph. I read it was supposed to go up at 58 mph. It almost seems that the more I drive the car the faster I have to go to get it to deploy.

The manual says 58 but then there should be some addendum included with your manual, its a yellow card, that says it should be 62. I agree with you mine goes up at 65, I think it depends on when your car was built. Mine was built last December, I am guessing yours was around that same time also.

If I'm accelerating rapidly, it goes up at 57. If I'm cruising it goes up at 60.
It probably goes up at 57 when you're flooring it so that it's all the way up by the time you get to 62mph... That's my theory.

The spolier on mind goes up at 65. I think my car is the newest for this form as the number is 23794.

During training- we were advised to give ranges at which the spoiler activates. It does not activate at any set in stone MPH reading on the IC.. As you noticed, it may deploy sooner at rapid accell. The same is true for decel.

Mine starts to deploy at 58, is fully extended by 62

It retracts at 29

That was the general response from the earlier thread.

Every new 'wave' of signups is gonna have the same result. I think it'd help if somehow the Search button was a bit more prominent on the screens. As it is, the eye is drawn to them animated icons and large bold text naming the forums, while Search is relegated to a tiny static icon with small text. Dunno if mighty can change that though.
