This is another installment series of short videos inspired by an excellent thread on Rennlist called “Porsche 991 little known facts”. Over time, I’ll be going through that list and making a video to verify as many of them as I can. Hope you enjoy it!
In this one, I'll show you some quirks of the PDK transmission and also debunk a couple other transmission facts from the rennlist thread

at 2:20 you debunked the neutral from 7th, it is a feature on all pdk equipped vehicles and I use it nearly daily. be it in the 718 cayman or a 991 Carrera. when you're in normal mode and have none of the sport modes enabled when at highway speeds you can press the up paddle whilst in 7th or pretty much any gear where a higher gear isn't possible to shift into due to low rpms. the gearbox then works out that you're trying to enable a neutral coasting mode. it is similar to Mercedes Benz' "glide" mode. note the car will only enter the coast mode when no throttle is applied. as soon as you apply the throttle it goes back into gear, the mode is particularly useful when travelling on a slight downward gradient where you can maintain your speed without having to consume more fuel. try it out!

I have found the car will go into neutral and coast only if the auto stop button is active. I don’t like coasting or auto stop, so I always press the button off.

On my 2018 Macan GTS, the parking brake will automatically engage if I am in gear (manual or auto for the PDK) and I open the door. I cannot replicate it on my 991.1 GTS.
