This loan vehicle is telling me 'Check Engine Visit Workshop'

I rang Porsche Assist and they asked 'is it juddering or suffering a loss of power' which it isn't at all.

They are on their way to carry out a diagnostic check, but before they arrive does anyone have any ideas? It not low on oil and its only done 5500miles.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. the manual only says that the 'meaning is the same as the text display!

Go Figure, lol.

The manual should really translate "if you haven't got warrenty, prepare to bend forward!"

Panic over. The chaps laptop basically said i'm a numpty as its recorded 3 stalls since i picked it up, :oops:

It tries to overide this happening by a quick surge of fuel but failed and recorded;

'engine stopped at 780rpm'

Oh well i've never stalled my 996 so it must be a fault with the '7' lol :wink:
