Is anyone else having issues? My car is brand new with roughly 20 miles. Drove it for about 15 minutes and now weird shi t happening. I posted some pics in my build thread showing the errors.. Now the car wont start.
I would start with the battery. My car is going to the dealer tomorrow because I have seen those messages and others. My battery died at the fuel pumps at the track at just over 1yr old. It was always on the Porsche Ctek maintainer whenever it was parked in the garage. There are many threads about this issue.
i would assume that it was checked during PDI, but you never know? Possibly when it was getting PPF doors, lights or something was left on? Hopefully you can jump it, get it to the dealer and they will replace. I don’t see how they can claim that you didn’t drive it 6000 miles/yr to deny your claim, but I wouldn’t put it past them. Good luck and I hope it is just a battery.
Was it one of those cars that took forever to finish? It seems like all the problem cars have been GTSs. Hope Porsche gets it sorted for you quickly and painlessly.

It never made into the shop for ppf. I drove it from the dealership to the shop and then it was dead. Picked the car up with 8 total miles and it now has 20. Brand new.

If it's a battery issue there isn't any loss of power. Window and lights all work.
Could have sufficient energy to power accessories but not enough to crank starter motor. My GUESS is battery not charged by dealer during prep process or battery will not hold charge…..but that is just a GUESS. Driving car 20 miles/15 minutes not sufficient to charge a weak battery.

I was told by the dealer that sometimes the cars lose their programming when the ownership is changed. I dont know if it corrected itself overnight or what but today it seems fine. I will report back.
