It's likely a faulty thermostat. For some reasons dealers like to reset fault and send you out again! Just ask them to replace it this time...

i agree, work ethics is declining quickly, so it is not unusual to have a car at dealer few times for the same problem. End result is more frustration for customer, and cars appear to be more unreliable

High probability of faulty thermostat. Mine is being replaced at the dealer right now and thru same codes. Porsche just released a new version of the Thermostat.

Let them know you are unhappy with their service. There is just no excuse especially when it is a known problem. Let them have it when you receive their service survey.

When you say "just released", when was that?
