So yesterday, I'm driving along the highway, and suddenly get a Tiptronic Emergency Run message on my dash. I pull over, turn off the car, but can't get my key out of the ignition - after much jiggling it comes out. I restart the car and the fault message is gone and transmission returns to normal mode but left headlight is out.

I got home, replaced ignition switch and headlight works fine and key comes in and out fine.

I plugged in the durametric and got these codes:



I cleared the codes, reset adaptation, and went to sleep.

This morning I drove into work, no error message, transmission is fine.

Are the ignition switch and error msg related? Could it have played havoc with electrical signals? Oh BTW I had the dealer replace transmission fluid and differential fluid 6,000 miles ago.

So, I changed the ignition switch, reset adaptation, cleared codes, and all was fine for 2 days.
Then I get this today:

DME: P0715 Porsche fault code 552 Tiptronic supply voltage speed sensors
Tiptronic: 13 RPM Sensor N3

and of course the "emergency run mode". any ideas?

Hi guys, the Tiptronic emergency run can up on my cayman s 06 while i was taking a trip. I stopped the car turned it off and everything ok. But now its doing it lots. Now I have a check engine light. I took it to the porsche dealer and they said i need new shifter cables. Any info on this?

welcome to the 996 NA forum. I do not know if your car shares the same tranny as the 996.

Might be worth asking asking the Cayman owners also: https://rennlist.com/forums/porsche-...nerations-126/

I get this one when I first start up my car...

Not sure what it means... looks like German, but when I go to look for error messages, this one pops up.

i didn’t manage to see the solution in the link. Can you explain what is it?

It would concern me a lot if that was showing on my dash.

I had the same problem for a long time where it would pop up at random. One day, the error could not be cleared no matter how many times I turned off and on the ignition, nor tried clearing the codes.

It was solved by switching out the conductor plate in the transmission.

Good luck!
