Unfortunately not. Button on console doesn’t work either. Only the driver’s side though - the near side is still pumped up as normal.
Ugh, presumably not driveable then? 
No, just waiting for the Direct Line recovery truck…
Porsches on recovery trucks is becoming a thing.

Oh dear, still it’ll get you some admiring glances from the baseball cap on backwards brigade.
Strange you should say that…just after it happened, i was in the queue for the Redbridge roundabout and a geezer in a customised van came past in the other lane - he wound down his nearside window, gave me a thumbs-up and shouted “nice”.

mine has an intermittent airbag warning light problem. Dealer assures me it is a loose connection, and that it wont go off in my face…and that it should still work in the event of an accident!
Oh boy… 
Mines having a new starter motor and alternator cable on Thursday. It is driveable.
All this, all of a sudden, makes the RX8 look positively reliable…

And you can pick up three RX8s for the price of one Pork repair, so at least you might have one runner.

Any news @Jim?
No , not yet. They already told me they were fully booked until Thursday, so won’t even be looking at it 'til then.
Spoke with the warranty co though, they confirmed the policy was good and they would communicate direct with the repairer.

Just heard from the repairer. The rear drivers side air spring failed and because the compressor pump was constantly trying to re-inflate it, that burned out too.
Estimated bill £2,150. 
…but on the upside, the warranty co have agreed to pay 95% of the above amount and issued a reference number to the repairer.
