    Re: Finally done it

     First bad experience 

    I have the car for two weeks now and have done almost 2.000 km with it.

    Today, I got in the car and tried to start it. Got lots of errors on the screen (ABS, airbags, PSM, temperature sensor, ...) and obviously the car didn't started.

    I suppose this is a dead battery?

    Porsche (or most likely other company) is coming over to get it started. Given the mileage I have done, I suppose that they will pay for the battery? How much would it cost to upgrade to the stronger 90 A battery? The one fitted now is standard 70 à 75A...

    I love the car so much, so I can't blame her. Nonetheless, I feel a bit disappointed... Hope to get everything up and running again...

    If anyone has suggestions, please post them.

    If it is parked in a garage and you have power then get yourself one of these mate:-

    Thank you for the tip. I will consider your suggestion towards the winter again Smiley (the car is parked in a garage but electricity is a bit of an issue)

    For the time being, I am of the view that I drive the car regularly and always for good distances, so it should simply work. The car is 5 years old and if it was the first battery, than its time came I suppose Smiley Even with a trickle charger, batteries die... Just a shame that mine didn't die 2 weeks earlier, i.e. just before I bought the car.

    Would Porsche make me pay for the stronger battery? If so, how much?
