Do you idle your car for long periods of time? Only way I can see a report like that.
First I have seen an over rev on a pdk. Learned something new.

You can overrev (level 1) on a PDK at least on a 987.2S
I did it in sport + and upshift late, yes the rev limiter will kick in but it still overrev slightly before the limiter kicks in (hence is only level 1)
but back to OP: no is not a concern at all

I would think you could over-rev a PDK to range 1, maybe 2 in manual mode by accidentally hitting the down paddle when attempting to upshift at near redline. I assume the computer or limiter / fuel shutoff keeps the car safe as with a PDK you're asking it to do something rather than physical doing it.
Has anyone seen a PDK car with anything above range 1-2?

I'm hoping for O/P's sake the info is just faulty and reading inaccurately. Including over revving a PDK.

The way I read your report is that your car spent 8380 hours in over rev range 1. Am I reading that right? If so, something is wrong. Or.....it was a test car in the factory at wide open throttle for a very long time (while on a stand with no mileage being put on the car). It is one of the first 991s after all........hmmmmm
