It seems like everyone else has a manual. More than enough to make me wonder.

Twice now. I think I replied earlier to this one after the 1st time. Our car is a 7-speed manual & it died on me the 2nd time at 5am on the way to the airport before our Road America race.
I actually was able to pinpoint that keeping the revs up would allow me to drive, otherwise it wouldn't idle. No one can tell me what's up; I would bet my lunch it's related to the auto stop/start and the communication between the flywheel hall effect sensor and the the injector/coil pack communication since the auto-start /stop fires the car unconventionally.
If I didn't post this before, since this happened I travel with a 10mm wrench to disconnect the battery, then it fires up no problem!

And who says that Porsche has forgotten their roots? I can't take credit, as I rely on that trick that was handed down to me.
Good luck getting it sorted and please post anything.

What? Really? My worlds are colliding. I grew up just up the hill, up 23 from the Wawa there. Are all of us having the same problems? I actually flew home to pick our car up from Knopf in Allentown in early May of 2012. Now I live in Florida where I wait patiently for the proud Canadian Wawa bird to open her stores here.
I remember getting teased about the word Conshohocken. Sounds pretty friggin' cool to me.

Alg1367 the thread starter says in post # 11 that his car is a stick. ?
At least that what it looks like when kosmo asked him.? Maybe I'm wrong.
Anyway, I talked to a guy I know who works in Stuttgart and says it's a known manual trans fix they are working on. He wasn't more specific since we were only chatting on what's app.
