Hello all

Took delivery of the Turbo S recently, drove it for roughly 2 days, love everything about this car bar the electronics haha

First drive 22nd Feb, noticed issue is spoiler won't raise when over 100km/h

2nd time of serious driving 10th May, went to the city and on the way back the wife noticed a bunch of notifications

Gonna send it to Porsche next week and will keep you guys updated

Often a low battery that triggers off everything?

+1 for battery, can cause all sort of issues if low on our cars.

Thank you for the information, will ask the service centre if it indeed is a cause.

Is there anyway to fix this myself? Going on a long drive?

981 Enthusiast

A battery tender would be best option if you have one available. You can check voltage on the display and should be at 12.6 with car turned off and key in the ignition if battery is fully charged.

A long drive will recharge the battery if your alternator is working but it's a slow process and with that many errors may do more harm then good if not a battery issue.

Purchase a charger your going to need 1 at some point anyway these cars can barely go a week without the battery needing to be kept at a suitable float voltage,

Ground strap fault

Sorry to be off topic, but I don’t think the numbers on my tachometer light up like yours in the dark.

Anyone else?

agree - ground strap. If you have access to PIWIS, I'd clear all the faults, remove, clean and retighten the battery ground lead and check the battery connections, charge the battery up fully, and my guess is you will be all good.

I went for a long drive, didn't help (I think)

can't use indicators and wipers among other things

maybe iPhone cam

I would let the dealer deal with it. It's a brand new car.

If the car sat from 22 Feb to 10 May, strongly suspect a battery issue. Need a tender or drive it more often. I'd suggest drive it way more often

Given the errors - many of those are related to the steering column switch unit and steering angle sensor . . . could be a bad unit . . . a bad calibration on that unit will through power steering, ACC, rear axle steering, PASM, and other faults. And the fact that some of the switches on that unit don't work back up that diagnosis. .. .

Pretty certain it will be a battery issue, just need to diagnose why:

Sat too long without a tender
Bad earth strap connection
Alternator problem
