mine was dead completely... so not exactly the same... for me it was a bad and dead 12V battery. Car. I would say jump start your 12V battery and see what happens. Maybe your dealer has already tried that. It at least worked for me.

So the AA (Porsche Assist) tried everything but got a call today from Porsche.

It turns out that some sensors under the bonnet caused an outage. Parts ordered and should be ready early next week. I'll keep you posted.

My 5 week old 4S just died while driving on the highway. A warning signal, in orange, appeared - “RPM high voltage system severely limited, safe to drive”. Within a few minutes another message appeared in red “electrical system fault, park safely” and all power to the motor was lost. Luckily, I was able to get onto the shoulder safely. I turned the car off, then back on and no warning signals…drove a few metres then same engine failure signal appeared and car stopped/died. However, this time the battery was completely drained to zero when it had just been at 40%. Not good at all.

Car is at the dealership now…they’re still trouble shooting. We’ll see but it certainly doesn’t sound good.

Car back - from when the engineer looked at it took 4 days. Just he had a backlog to get to mine. Was a few bonnet sensors causing system to malfunction. All ok now.
