I had the ignition error message today again. After that :
- I drove 50 miles, approx 1 hour
- stopped for 10 minutes
- back in the car and turned ignition to first position, error message still there,
- Started car and drove for 15 miles, approx 20 minutes (message / key error icon still there while driving)
- Stopped car and turned off. Turned ignition to first position and message was gone. Started car, message still gone.
So there's the data - no idea how to interpret it though.
Then I had a "front lift error inspection necessary" on the way home while raising for a high speed bump making the system unavailable for the rest of the drive home. Fortunately it reset itself on restart. So that's 2 different error codes in 2 months. Compared to my Audi R8 - zero codes in 8 years.

If it makes you feel better I received the "reduced engine power, driving permitted" the day I took delivery of the car. That one immediately cleared upon restart haha. I haven't used my front lift yet.

Thanks for the post. This completely resolved the issue in my 2022 GT3. The warning appeared three times in a row after start-up. Following the correct procedure self cleared the warning immediately and it has not returned.
