I found it quite useful the other week on the Nurburgring but the button's in a very awkward place (unless you have the AUTO control), I do a lot of motoway miles so I have used it quite a bit on the long runs.

When you say useful, did it actually make any noticeable difference?

Haven't got it myself, but would have thought it would be really useful in traffic (just before a clear bit of road) and higher speed runs?!?!?

it's very useful helps when you want to put foot down or in traffic etc. as i have a oil temp gauge after a few squirts temp starts to fall back down so very useful.

When your sitting in traffic on a hot day and press it, it will on occasion let a comical mist of vapour out of your scoop, much to the amusement of passers by. Id imagine its just a bit of fluid getting on the turbo. I find mine runs out realy fast.
