<\/p>\n
At that time, I was driving with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), but it automatically disengaged, and no matter what I tried, I couldn\u2019t operate the cruise control anymore.<\/p>\n
I then pulled over at a nearby parking area, turned off the engine, and restarted it. The error message disappeared, and from then on, the car ran normally as if nothing had happened, allowing me to safely return home. When I later had the dealer check it, they said it “might have been a malfunction caused by the heavy rain<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n By the way, that error message has never appeared again since then. <\/p>\n After delivery, the first time I went to a gas station to refuel, I was very surprised by “how hard it was to open the fuel filler cap.<\/strong>” The 971 Panamera uses a push-to-open fuel filler cap, but it felt stiff, as if the spring wasn\u2019t working properly\u2026 I can\u2019t quite describe it, but it was just very hard to open.<\/p>\n In my case, I had to press the edge of the fuel filler cap firmly with the back of my hand, applying weight like performing CPR to open it<\/strong>. Even some gas station attendants asked me, “How do you open this?<\/strong>”<\/p>\n Regarding this difficulty, at some inspection, the service staff told me they “fixed the fuel filler cap malfunction<\/strong>,” and after that, it opened without any problems. <\/p>\n One day, when I glanced at the Sports Chrono clock in the Panamera, the time displayed was very strange.<\/p>\n \u201c23:52\u201d\u2026 What the heck? (-_-)<\/span><\/p>\n I thought, \u201cNo way, it\u2019s definitely daytime,\u201d and proceeded to fix the time. This was easily corrected by going to the system\u2019s “Date and Time<\/strong>” settings and pressing the automatic time sync button.<\/p>\n That said, I don\u2019t really know why this incorrect display happened, but since then, this issue has not reoccurred. <\/p>\n This isn\u2019t a malfunction of the Panamera itself, but I\u2019ve had two punctures so far. The first was one year after delivery, on the right rear tire, and the second was in May this year, on the right front tire.<\/p>\n Both times, nails had pierced the tires, but the damage wasn\u2019t severe, so the dealer\u2019s repair was sufficient. So far, it seems I\u2019m getting a puncture about once a year lol. <\/p>\n This was something my husband noticed; it never happened when I started the engine. Apparently, there were 2 or 3 occasions where the engine stalled right after starting. It felt similar to when a motorcycle engine fails to start properly, and the following error messages appeared:<\/p>\n However, if you turn off the main switch and start the engine again, it starts normally and the error disappears. My husband says, “It tends to happen if you start the engine while the door is open and the seat is moving<\/strong>,” but it hasn\u2019t happened again since.<\/p>\n At the two-year inspection, they checked this issue but said, “Normally, error history would remain in the computer, but because there have been many successful starts, the old error history has been erased<\/strong>,” so the cause couldn\u2019t be identified. <\/p>\n Over these two years, there have been minor issues, but no major breakdowns, and our Panamera has been running smoothly. During this time, we\u2019ve driven back and forth to Fuji Speedway multiple times, tackled winding roads, braved heavy rain on the highway, driven on circuits, and even participated in the Porsche Track Experience to experience full acceleration and full braking. Despite these quite harsh conditions, the Panamera has had no breakdowns and seems to be running even better than before.<\/strong><\/p>\n Ah, the Panamera really is a great car.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Panamera Issues and Malfunctions The 971 Panamera Turbo has already surpassed 25,000 km.
