Do you happen to have a link to that recall?
Or at least what it's exactly for?
Did you have the exact same 4 faults? This car has regular battery. Didn't sound weak when starting, and after hour and a half of highway driving (3K+ rpm), it must have been fully charged. But if you had the same 4 faults (especially the tranny one), and nothing happened ever again, sounds promising. I'm sure JRCNRING will update us tomorrow.
As a side note, I was surprised by a heavy momentary moan (got to be from the intake) upon initial acceleration from a dead stop. It was pretty loud from both outside (me following), and inside. Then goes quiet, and sounds aggressive again after rpm climb (PSE ON). This car sounds similar to my Cayman GTS with the 'symposer' intake tube into the cabin, but mine only sounds loud at 4K+ rpm. Assume that behavior must be normal. By the way, this car sounds a lot nicer than a GT3, for some reason. At least to me. Can't imagine how much louder it'll get at redline
. It already sounds like a race car; just incredible.

Awesome news. Many thanks. May I ask you where exactly is this sensor, and if your issue was with the sensor itself (loose, broken), or the connector side? Couldn't find any info on 991s, but on 997s is exactly at the rear of the hub, behind the rotor. And the connector right at the top. Unfortunately, none of us have a centerlock wrench, and with those super wide wheels, might not be able to get to them today. But a local indy can check it out tomorrow if needed. Have a great day folks.

How can I find my build date?
Was there a software update to the gt3... I thought I remember reading about one and if so was it for 16?
Thx

...My car was built July 15. I know that there have been a couple of recalls, mine only required one late last month. Need to check what it was, seem to recall it was ECU related.....
