Default CEL code

I took my car for a 60K service and the dealder was able to clear the CEL. The code that I got was 108, is this number correct?

well, if it's a P code ("Powertrain") then it would be...

P0108 Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit High Input

...on the generic list. I don't have anything in my notes about a Porsche specific 108 code but maybe there is something in the PIWIS or PST codes which I'm missing.

I would ask the dealer for the full OBD code (starts with a letter, "P" "B" or "C" followed by 4 numbers) and re-post it here.

A Porsche fault code 108 (P1602) does not turn the CEL on.
P0108 (Porsche code 299) Ambient Pressure Sensor – Above Limit does turn the CEL on.

Service sheet indicates low voltage stored with fault code 0108. It doesn't have any designation like P, B, C. I'm crossing my fingers that CEL does not turn on again.

it came back again but disappeared after fixing my battery. would a bad battery really make a CEL to turn on? has anybody experienced this?
