After driving a sensible car for seven years, getting a good education and finding a job I love, and I think I do well, I finally decided to put the "corvette fund" (see "tuition fund", but name changed after scholarship received) to good use.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 1 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

I know the radiator fans in the front will run while the engine is off. But mine have been running for the past two hours non-stop (still running), surely it does not take that long to cool down. I've searched for similar issues in the threads, but haven't found any where the fans stay on forever after engine shut down. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. I'm mostly worried about the battery running down. This would happen on a Saturday night after the dealer is closed. Thanks in advance for the help.

POST 2Original post

Sounds like a failed sensor/switch. I think I'd either hook up a battery tender or disconnect the battery . Two hours seems out of line IMO.

POST 3Original post

Too Late! Wasn't fast enough getting back from the office to the house! Tried to start it before the battery ran down too far, but of course instead I just got my key stuck. However, the guy that Porsche roadside assistance sent was really great, especially since he had to push it down from the 5th floor of my parking garage. Hope I get it back soon. I've only really been able to take it on a few trips since November.

POST 4Original post

We feel your pain . . . Wow, that's a pretty serious issue on a nearly new car - at least as a major inconvenience for you. Keep us updated on what the problem turned out to be.

POST 5Original post

Thanks KS-CS, I will be sure to let everyone know the diagnosis. I hope it was just a bad switch or sensor. I dread the thought of some other heat related/cooling system problem. Warning: START OF VENT. I somewhat feel like it is a rite of passage to have such a problem. But seriously! After driving a sensible car for seven years, getting a good education and finding a job I love, and I think I do well, I finally decided to put the "corvette fund" (see "tuition fund", but name changed after scholarship received) to good use. I hate the feeling that I might have made a mistake. Don't get me wrong. I love the CS, but I thought it would be a stress reliever not a stresser (my wife and I work high stress jobs and don't need any extra). I am starting to feel like I should have just gone with the the practical lexus or infinity (boring, no issues, no yearning to drive it, wouldn't have even needed to dip into the "corvette fund"). I hope that the feelings go away as soon as I get behind the wheel again (with the engine running). But right now I am just really bummed. VENTING COMPLETE Everyone living in the New England area enjoy the Super Bowl. Everyone else in the world enjoy the commercials.

POST 6Original post

The diagnosis: Your radiator fan had a short somewhere and is staying on and draining the battery . New part is on its way. The people at the dealership have been great, and gave me a Cayenne as a loaner. Makes you appreciate the Cayman.

POST 7Original post

Too bad they didn't give you a Cayenne GTS loaner; then you'd wonder at the Cayenne 's ability to give very near Cayman level performance.
