Been informed today that my GTS which was due this month is delayed due to a sale stop.
Something to do with ‘loudspeaker booster’ which I’m told is impacting many of the macans.

Any ideas what this is?

Also why do new cars get a sale stop - if it’s just waiting on a part (assuming that’s what loudspeaker booster refers to), then why not just put it on hold until that part comes - why label it as sales stop.

Any ideas?

Ah, we’ll probably not that then. Can’t really think what else it can be.

Loudspeaker booster is used in some audio articles to cover either volume control or amplifier or a unit that combines both

Yep that would make sense, any idea why they call it a stop sale - are they just effectively saying the car is on hold in the body shop waiting for this part?

When I was involved in automotive industry - and that was 30 years ago - stop sale meant hold a batch of cars, typically prior to launch, or hold until something was verified, e.g. inspection of some parts.
