TPC inactive code is tied to your tire pressure monitoring system. It is all described in the manual. Probably the battery in one of the wheel sensors is low. Sometimes the fault comes and goes and the system re-learns by driving. You should be able to scroll with the level left of the steering wheel to see which wheel is not reading the tire pressure.

...some of the guys here can tell you more I am sure...

And the car looks really great!

When you are at the tpc inactive screen you can't see which one is dead. It is likely that one is dead and three will die soon. So change all four.
Search the forum on this, there are some good prices around even for OEM part not Porsche. I think tire rack sells them too. The brand of the sensors is BERU. I don't recall the part number though, look it up.

If you replace the TPMS sensors get the OEM ones from Suncoast. They have the best prices. If your car happens to be under warranty your they will be covered. My dealer replaced all four of mine just because they were old..

Hello Alex and welcome. I live in Miami too and there is a dearth absence of Porsche mod shops in a town that has so many high performance cars. Champion Motorsports in Pompano is the most experienced shop I know of. For wheels you can also go to see Benny or Andreas at Wheel Boutique (www.wheelsboutique.com). I got both track wheels and street wheels.

Also, consider taking your car to Homestead or PBIR tracks days at www.performancedrivinggroup.com. It's a well managed event and a great bunch of guys that are experienced on all aspects of performance mods and driving.

Joe

Someone drive to his place and hit him with his own car! All he ever did to his other Porsches was clean them, he refused to drive them. Then he bought this one to drive... now he wants to start cleaning it? no...
