It would be nice if the OP could simply post info here, or explain why that’s not possible. Defeats the purpose of the forum for all of us to be exchanging PMs on the same subject.
As you can see from the post history I was the second person to request information... which BTW I never received.
Anyway I now believe that this was if not the issue, at least part of it that eventually lead to my having to fork over $13K to my local and only stealership for a transmission replacement. This even though I called to their attention this National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) bulletin published by Porsche and which explained how to re-solder some contacts withing the transmission. At the time that I found it I downloaded the bulletin but now I can't find it.
Here's that screen print of the NHTSA reference with the hope that it will help anyone making a claim and maybe have better luck than I did.
Its been a while since I had my PDK clutch fluid changed and at that time I questioned the tech about the temp sensor on the PDK. IIRC its remove the pan , then the hydraulic pack comprised of 20 screws in the reverse torque sequence of tightening to get at the sensor which he said is a pretty flimsy sensor. Cutting and re crimping the connection isn't that hard its the time to r and r with correct torquing sequence of the hydraulic pack that takes time.Thats if its a sensor issue
PDK Temerature Sensor defect - Is Porsche paying for this?
I am possibly having the same issue in my 2009 Carrera. Is this something paid for by Porsche? The document mentions "invoice" and the word "defective" - "Defective crimp connections on the temperature sensor in the PDK transmission can cause the warning message “Gearbox emergency operation” to be displayed."
I am attaching the NHTSA document referenced in the quote.
