A member has enquired if anyone has any thoughts or has any experience of an intermittent all wheel drive fault warning as described below:
"I’m after some knowledge/advice please in regards to my Panamera GTS AWD. The vehicle was registered in October 2012 and has done 54,000 miles.
I have an infrequent fault that started a couple of months back and has just occurred for a fourth time. I think it’s a software issue but I would appreciate some guidance. Whilst driving a fault icon comes up on one of the digital screens outlining the all wheel drive system and declares failure. This is quickly followed by the skidding car icon declaring PSM disengaged. The car reduces speed then to around 35/40 mph. Pulling the car over as soon as I can, I’ve found that turning the car off, pulling the key out (as though I’m about to get out and lock it) waiting several seconds and then starting the car again it clears and the car is fine and drives as it should.
I don’t think I have a mechanical issue but given it can be anytime anywhere I do need to get a resolution and fix. Your thoughts or ideas on this would be very much appreciated and thank you for taking the time with this request."
Thank you
Randall
