Help interpreting 997.2 codes
I have some recent active codes on my PDK 2010 997.2 c2s that seem to indicate coil/plug on cylinder 5 but some other problems as well:
P2314
P0355
P0305
U0418 - PDK
U0401 - PDK
5400 - PSM
C152 - POSIP
While driving the dashboard flashed "visit workshop" warnings and white transmission emergency run warnings. The engine also has an obvious misfire.
Should I chalk this all up to needing to replace coils/plugs (last done 28,000 miles / 3.5 years ago) or could it be something else? The battery is also 3.5 years old, but I have noted that recently the engine cranks longer.
Thanks in advance

I would do coils and plugs first. A misfire can result in a PDK transmission error for some reason from what I've seen, even though I don't understand why. I'd first address the misfire then see where you are.

I had more or less the same error codes and changed all plugs and coils. Problem solved!!
A coil pack can produce an internal spark and so producing an Electro Magnetic field. Probably the PDK control unit is susceptible for EM fields. (EMC)
New coils

Thanks for the feedback. To close this out for posterity, I had the coils and plugs changed (~$1200) at an independent in the Chicago suburbs and seemed to fix all the issues. Everything runs great now and no codes.
Thanks again-
