My Spoiler is not rising

when I drive on the freeway at 70+ the spoiler is not automatically rising, do you think there is a problem with it? It rises when I push the button but not otherwise....

A little more info, please. First, the spoiler is supposed to rise at 75 - are you up to that speed? How do you monitor the spoiler - it cannot be seen in the mirror, there is no warning light, so an outside party has to watch and tell you.

Oh, I thought the light on the button lights up when it's up...I guess it is working.

My dealer has some little blue pills for your problem, but notify your doctor if your spoiler stays up for more than 24 hours.

I recall people posting numbers as to what they think the resulting down force from the spoiler could be, and the numbers are not very large. I too wish the spoiler would have an indicator when in the up position - for people that track the car, the spoiler can keep on going up and down unless they remember to set it to manual mode.
