Default Car stalled at red light

Hi guys,

so yesterday I pour a can of BG44K in my 14 Panamera with 12k

today I was slowing down at a red light and just before completely stop, I started to feel like the car wanted to die on me, stalled maybe 2-3 seconds and right away I give it some gas and went away it worked just fine.. does anyone had similar problems? High pressure pump or something else?


thanks All

hmm, maybe some bad fuel, how recently did it start after your last fill up?

it was a few miles, but also I've noticed some hesitation when hard acceleration, so I'm thinking the High P fuel pump maybe going bad ..

Do you use Shell? If not, try it and see if it gets rid of the problem. It's happened to me with a 997 before and switching fuel (to only P approved fuel) scolded the issue.

I have my doubts on the fuel pump being the issue, it'd cause more widespread problems throughout the rpm range as the pump would present more problems as its duty cycle was increased. You could have a diagnostic scan run on it though. PIWIS from the dealer or get yourself a durametric and see if there are any error codes.

I was thinking the pump because of my morning long cranks, I do use shell 93
