I went for a drive yesterday to the top of Chinook Pass. Parked for awhile using the park brake as usual. Went to move to a different location and the car made a strange noise and feel. Slow speed for about 100 yards until I could move off the road. It has not repeated the noise/feel. No messages. Guessing it could be the p-brake partially engaging...that or something out of sync with all wheel drive. Hopefully a one-off deal, but not very confidence inspiring. Any ideas?

I know not very descriptive, but it was a binding/grinding noise. It felt like there was a drag or bind on the wheels. It went away hopefully to never return. But at the time I was thinking it would need to be flat-bedded to the shop.

from excessive heat, parking brake probably stuck

Ellito is right on with this. I had the same thing happen to me with my 997 Turbo. I did a spirited drive with sporty braking. Stopped the car and put the parking brake on. Same thing. Squeaky noise for a small distance
as if the parking brake didn't disengage but was fine after that. My tech at Danbury Porsche stated if you do a spirited drive let the ceramics cool first before applying the parking brake.

And Elliott991TS, thanks again for checking out that car in your neighborhood. I was fortunate to find a 17S heavily optioned, low miles close to me.
