Stock 2007 997 Turbo tip. No modifications whatsoever.



On cold starts, sometimes i get a "beep" [warning beep] and a quick one second or less warning message = TIPTRONIC EMERGENCY RUN. (Had to video the error message as it was too fast to read)



Have sent the car to the local dealer but problem still persists.



Things they have tried are :



Change sensor

Clean the linkages and connectors



Problem only occurs when engine is left overnight..... and even then may not always throw out the error message.



Any ideas ??

 

Hello,

Have you checked your battery condition?

I usually get this message when the battery voltage is low.

Cheers,
Emre

 

Well..THAT could be just it as the workshop said my alternator nor charging well... They asked me to change the alternator wiring harness....but they don't have stock so I will order in once I get the part number......

Thanks for the quick reply.

 

emre is right - check your battery. I was getting the same message very briefly on start up occasionally and a few weeks later, battery died.
