A flurry of errors in my 2019 Carrera T Manual when I try to start the car...
I just bought a 2019 Carrera T. It's Porsche Certified with a clean Carfax.
I drove it home, parked it in the driveway, and about 5 minutes later decided to drive somewhere else but the car wouldn't start.
I'm seeing a handful of different errors and I'm not sure what to make of it. Here are two videos of what I'm seeing and hearing:
I guess you would need to copy and paste the video URLs to see them. I'm not able to upload mp4 files for some reason.

You have a low battery, these cars freak out if the battery isn’t good. I would recommend having the dealer replace the battery.

The dealer should replace it seeing as you have had it 1 day.

No, it does not as the battery is considered a normal wear item. However, when purchasing a CPO vehicle, you should expect to receive a fully functioning car (including the battery). If you have not already done so, have the car towed to the dealer using the free Porsche towing service and have the dealer sort everything out.

It's clearly the battery because that is what your MFD display is telling you. It may have been sitting at the dealer for a while without a tender on it. I'm assuming the battery is 4 years old. Does the car have low mileage on it?

That's an AGM battery not lithium. The part number is the standard battery that came with the 991.2 Carreras (same as mine). I'd just get a battery tender on it or drive it for a while and it will be fine.
