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.

When starting up my Spyder today ..... " Suspension system fault . Drive with caution " notification . This after 2/3 weeks of non driving .
Only 2,546 m and after a recent First Service ( Oil & Filter ) .
I know I am still under Warranty ... but what's this all about ..... Suspension Failure ?
Any thoughts . Thanks
Hi S. Your Welsh friend here. Sorry to hear of your problem. Suspect PASM switching issue. Have you tried switching to sport? I am having electrical gremlins with Macan. Keep getting warnings about rear lights not working - when they ARE working / weird ! Spyder going well so far though. 3200 miles now !
Hi J. No did not try switching to PASM …. Must be a software problem . When one of the top mounts went on the GTS there was a different warning sign if I can remember .
I may have to visit the OPC again to fix . Unless it resolves naturally . I am coming down to Devon after Easter so i may have to ‘ Drive with caution ‘ until this gets fixed .
Cheers SBD
Probably a simple sensor anomaly, like a variable outside a threshold - possibly related to sitting idle.
Will need a code reader for more clues.
Unlikely to clear on it's own - will need code reading and resetting most likely.
Good luck
I know it is only 2/3 weeks but some cars (any modern car) can go into a strop if the battery voltage drops and may do all sorts of weird things.
I would drive it for an hour, make sure the stop/start is working, restart it later and see if it does the same.
Thanks for all the advice Chaps ! I will try all the tricks suggested . Never used the Stop/Start … always switch this off before moving out . Have noticed that the Spyder has a ‘ Battery Protection Mode ‘ which my previous GTS did not . This always showed when I switched on after about 3/ 4 weeks and after about 5/6 weeks . Battery has never let me down ( yet ) .

Never used the Stop/Start …
The reason I suggested using it was not to save the planet, if the battery is below par the car will not allow Stop/Start to work, it will only work when the battery is fully charged.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
