Default Electrical and sensor glitches

2013 PTT, last week began: Monday TPMS fault; Wednesday, PSM fault; Friday 4 wheel drive and auto start stop fault.

I know the car is sensitive to battery voltage. The battery is brand new. This is what I'm thinking: I had an Escort Max ci 360 installed, and on the panamera the Escort rep said because of the auto start/stop, he had to install a voltage stabilizer.

All these glitches and faults have happened AFTER the voltage stabilizer was installed.

There are a lot of threads for these faults, most of them resolve with coil packs. This seems just too random though.

Thoughts?

Can you try removing the voltage stabilizer and finding a different radar detector? I don't seem to have any issues w/ my V1. Another idea - can you disable your start/stop feature?

That's my first move. The Max ci 360 works without the voltage stabilizer but throws it's own codes, disabling the rear laser shifters. As far as I'm concerned, if I didn't see the LEO and he shoots me from behind... situational awareness.

Another thing, I've read more than one Panny owner lamenting about just this christmas tree. It almost always is cured by coil pack replacement. So I've got that in my back pocket.

On another note, the car is flat out amazing. Got the dealer to respray the front clip and clay bar/ceramic coat. I go out to the garage in the middle of the night just to look at it
