Just got a engine control error.

Car is struggling to drive and hardly pushes power off the line.

Was literally stopping me in the middle of the road.

I’m done with it ???

Are you asking percentage?

It was 45% or 115 miles.

That should not be the issue here.

Pulled over after barely getting ran over as it stopped in the middle of a intersection, turned it off, sat there, called my dealership, turned it back on and drove to dealership fine.

If they cant figure out what happened most likely will be getting rid of this car.

Which one are we talking about?

There have been numerous updates for this car :D

The dealer did mention some software update that was new that I will need but not sure which one and if thats for this issue.

There was a March 2022 update in there about. Curious because im seeing multiple reports of turtling and motor control failure, something the WMA5/6/7 update caused.

:(Really worrisome. Stopping in the middle of road like a computer “crashed”.

Hopefully OP got a detailed explanation of the reason and would be able to share here.

Hmm idk just checked the car fax.

My vehicle was last serviced

Feb 14 2022.

Was the update released by then?

If not idk what the story is here.

I also have no open recalls listed on mine.

Not good, sounds like some over arching issue occurred here.

Update:

Dealership has said the following to me.

They are opening a case with Porsche for helping with testing and diagnosis.

Sounds like they have no idea what’s going on.

They are saying car will most likely need to be there a month.

??? that’s probably it for me with this car, once I get it back will be getting rid of it.

Dealer also confirmed they do know the car for sure lost communication at some point, whatever that means, hope Porsche can figure out why.
