Just read this on another forum - I've no idea if it's true or maybe just a complete fabrication, but if your having problems give it a try and please report your findings,

Resetting your PDK if you transmission has developed a problem.

Here is the procedure:
1. Turn on the engine, turn off A/C (and any other consumer like PCM, etc.) and let the engine run for 3 minutes.
2. Turn on A/C and wait another 3 minutes.
3. Turn off engine, remove the key, close the car and wait one minute.
4. Restart car and PDK is now reset to factory default

Regards,

Ctrl, Alt, Delete then, Clive[:)]

Why would the PDK be set to anything other than factory default? Does it do some kind of learning/update depending on how you drive it, I wonder? We can ask our man in Exeter tomorrow night!
 
Yes, similar comment made on the "other" forum, then somebody subsequently posted they had tried it and it worked! [8|]

Placebo effect........ maybe! :rolleyes:

I guess the part which introduces the doubt is what has the A/C got to do with the PDK. I know these Porsche engineers are cunning chaps but that just seems a very odd way of having a reset. Or is this like the "one notch" on the handbrake disables the 4WD on turbos and 4s? I never have found out if that works or not!
