T2,

The only thing they found was one weak battery cell so they replaced it. Interestingly enough this battery was installed 18 months ago by RI Porsche dealer (no warranty was granted). So far, a week after the symptom has not recurred even though they were not sure if that was the culprit.

One more thing that may not be related is the headlight switch not turning on the high beam every time.
